Ward Discretionary Fund

The Ward Discretionary Fund is a local grant program operated by The Highland Council in Scotland. Each council ward receives a discretionary budget to support community initiatives that align with Highland Council Objectives and Outcomes. The fund is designed to support reasonable applications from community groups and organizations across Highland's council wards. Priority is given to projects that attract additional funding from other sources, demonstrating community support and sustainability. The fund aims to support short-term or one-time projects rather than initiatives requiring ongoing financial commitment from the council.
