Shetland Community Benefit Fund - Advance Grant Scheme
Summary
The Advanced Grant Scheme is financed by the Viking Community Fund during the estimated four year construction phase of the Viking Energy Wind Farmland. The strategic objective of the fund is to help "sustain and develop Shetland's communities".
Only projects recommended by a local community council will be supported. Funding is dependent on the condition that the project is sustainable without further funding from the scheme.
