Glens of Foudland Wind Farm Community Trust

Currently open

The aim of the Trust is to support projects that fall into the category of providing a community benefit. In practice this might mean any project related to environmental issues, local community halls & schools or that supports youth activities. Other novel and imaginative projects will also be considered. The Trust will consider all such possibilities and any organisation including clubs, schools, parent groups and community based or other similar organisations may apply for a Trust grant. Priority will be given by the Trust to projects where more appropriate funding sources might not be available. The Trust will consider co-funding projects, particularly where acting as a co-funder may enable the release of other larger funding from elsewhere.
