Nadara Westfield Wind Farm Community Fund (Kinglassie) Education & Training Fund

The Nadara Westfield Wind Farm Community Fund (Kinglassie) Education & Training Fund supports residents of any age living in the Kinglassie Community Council area to take up vocational training and educational courses. The fund is provided by Westfield Wind Farm Limited (WWFL) the owner and operator of the Westfield Wind Farm in Fife. The fund provides grants to help local people take up vocational education and training courses to increase their skills and enable access to a wider range of employment opportunities. In recognition of the financial and practical challenges that can make it more difficult for people in Kinglassie to take up courses, funding can be used to cover part or all of a course fee, travel costs, essential equipment such as books or IT equipment, childcare and subsistence. The Kinglassie Education & Training Fund began as a one-year pilot in 2023, and will now run continuously with up to £10,000 available each year to support local people aged 16 and over take up education and training opportunities. The annual amount available will be reviewed periodically but could continue for the wind farm's operating lifetime, which is expected to be until 2039.
