The Hillhead of Auquhirie Windfarm Community Fund opens for applications on 1 April 2021.  

Applications to the fund can be made from groups and projects which benefit the communities living in the community council areas of:

• Arbuthnott
• Catterline, Kinneff & Dunnottar

Fern Community Fund, the energy company who maintains the Hillhead of Auquhirie Wind Farm fund, sees £12,523 per year available to support local community projects during the 25-year lifetime of the wind farm. 

The fund is open for applications from 1 April 2021 until 30 June 2021.  A panel made up of representatives from the community council areas along with a representative from Kincardineshire Development Partnership (KDP) will then meet to consider applications.

Since March 2020 our local communities have been providing vital support for the vulnerable, isolated and those in need. The response has been incredible, from the initial "all hands to the pumps" to the continued and ongoing support that community groups of volunteers have maintained throughout the remainder of 2020.

As 2021 has seen us experiencing tighter restrictions once again we wanted to remind you of the amazing work and support still being provided for your communities.

We have updated the interactive map to ensure easy access to help and support provided in your local area.

You can access the updated Map here
