Details

The Glasgow City Centre Improvement Grant Fund has been established to assist organisations and communities in Glasgow city centre to create meanwhile use spaces, deliver small projects and undertake minor improvement works. The grant will fund proposals able to demonstrate a positive impact on the city centre, enhancing its attractiveness and inclusivity.

The Improvement Grant Fund is designed to address two key issues: improving the look and feel of the city centre, and finding productive uses for vacant property.

Applications will need to demonstrate how they address the priorities of the City Centre Strategy:

• Magnetic Experience: The development of more compelling reasons to visit, shop and enjoy the city centre, with the power to surprise and inspire visitors.
• A Place to Live: Place-based approach to regeneration which responds to climate issues and respects planetary boundaries. It is inclusive, balanced and connected with amenities to support a growing population.
• Front Door to Innovation: Creating opportunities to welcome digital, life sciences, climate science and creative industries into a mix which converges with arts, engineering, and business.
