Nadara Glenkerie Wind Farm Community Fund

The Nadara Glenkerie Wind Farm Community Fund supports community projects benefiting those living within 15km of the Glenkerie Wind Farm in Scottish Borders and South Lanarkshire. The fund began in 2014 and provides an annual amount of at least £57,200 per year, rising in line with inflation, for the operating life of the wind farm which is expected to be 25 years. The overall aims are to support activity which will sustain and develop the life of the community and ensure that the area is an attractive and vibrant place to live, work and visit. Grant sizes range from small grants (£250-£2,000), medium grants (£2,001-£10,000), to large grants (over £10,001 to £15,000, with awards over £15,000 only in exceptional circumstances). Priority is given to applications from communities within 10km of the wind farm including Tweedsmuir, Broughton, Drumelzier and Coulter, though other communities within the 15km radius are eligible including Stobo, Biggar, Symington, Roberton, Lamington, Wiston and Skirling.
