Kirkcowan Community Fund

The Kirkcowan Community Fund is provided by Kirkcowan Community Development Trust using funds from the ScottishPower Renewables Kilgallioch and RES Glenchamber wind farms. The fund supports sustainable community development in Kirkcowan through grants to relevant projects, services and facilities. Kirkcowan Community Development Trust's aim is to provide benefit to the community of Kirkcowan through sustainable community development. The Trust has a live Community Action Plan and prioritises projects and activities which fit within the framework of this plan. Grants of any size will be considered for groups and organisations working to benefit people in Kirkcowan. The fund operates on a rolling basis with no fixed deadlines. Decisions are typically made within four weeks of receiving an application. Applications from groups and organisations located outside the fund area must demonstrate a clear benefit for residents within Kirkcowan. The Directors of the Kirkcowan Community Development Trust, who are people who live in the Kirkcowan community, make decisions on grant awards from the fund.
