Community Grants Fund Information
Community Grants Fund - Information
The Community Grants Fund is designed to support pieces of work or projects which fall outside mainstream service delivery, but which clearly benefit local people in the Western Edinburgh area. A Grant of up to £5,000 is available to constituted community groups with an open membership.
The Neighbourhood Partnership assesses applications on the basis of three distinct themes:
o Community Participation and Support
o Quality of Life
o Social Inclusion.
The Partnership is keen to make sure that local people and organisations know about these grants and how to apply, so that we can make the best use of this resource for the local area.
This year the Almond Edinburgh Partnership has approved the following grants.
South Queensferry £5,000
Arts Festival
1st Kirkliston £5,000
Scout Group
Davidson Mains £2,500
Children’s Gala
Association.
