The latest in Funding Scotland's series of "Meet the funder" webinars will take place on Wednesday 11 December at 14:00 - 15:00, featuring speakers from the Scottish Land Fund & SSE Community Investment.
Anyone can attend for free. This webinar is aimed in particular at community groups/organisations looking for funding to support their community. Book your place here!
Are you looking for funding to purchase land or a building to benefit your community? Or perhaps to ensure the sustainability of your local community group? Join SCVO's Rachel Boyd for an online meet the funder session to hear from the Scottish Land Fund and SSE Community Investment about their grant programmes.
Find out more about who's eligible, what kind of applications the funders are looking for and how to make a strong case for funding, as well as a chance to ask questions directly.
TNLCF's Scottish Land Fund supports urban and rural communities to become more resilient and sustainable through the ownership and management of land and land assets. The fund offers grants of up to £1 million to help communities take ownership of the land and buildings that matter to them, as well as practical support to develop their aspirations into viable projects.
SSE's community investment programme provides community-focused grants via their local funds and sustainable development funds. In 2023/24 their funds delivered over £10.37 million in grants to community projects, helping over 957 not-for-profit organisations realise their ambitions.
Previous webinars have featured Bank of Scotland, the People's Postcode Trust, Architectural Heritage Fund, and the National Lottery Community Fund. You can watch the recordings of these on SCVO's YouTube channel.
