The aim is to award funding to 8-10 projects and ensure cultural and creative assets across Scotland remain usable, resilient and fit for purpose as climate conditions continue to change.The demonstration fund is designed to support pathfinder projects where practical interventions can be completed at pace, while generating valuable learning to inform future investment decisions across Scotland’s cultural and creative estate.With a strong emphasis on experience and insight, the programme will prioritise projects that are capable of being delivered quickly, and able to demonstrate clear, transferable lessons.Grant funding will support the delivery of projects to be completed within the 2026 - 2027 financial year.
