Hadyard Hill Community Fund (Dailly)

Hadyard Hill Community Fund (Dailly) is funded by SSE community benefit funding from the Hadyard Hill Wind Farm. The fund supports projects located within or directly benefiting the community area of Dailly.

Hadyard Hill Dailly has an Advisory Panel that decides on grant awards from this fund. The Panel is made up of two community councillors and local volunteer members from the community council area of Dailly. The Panel meets approximately four times per year to make decisions on applications to the fund.

Hadyard Hill Dailly fund administration is provided by Foundation Scotland, a national grant-making charity. Foundation Scotland receives and processes applications and works with the Panel to award grants.

About £50,000 in total is provided each year, however amounts available vary from round to round as awards are made.

A micro-grant scheme, for awards up to £650, is available and administered directly by the Community Council. Applications are by a simple application form, and decisions are made on a rolling basis. Please contact the Community Council directly for further details, or complete the Funding Form that you will find in the drop-down menu.

• Standard grants between £650 - £15,000
• Large grants over £15,000 and up to £25,000. Multi-year awards of up to three years are available.

Hadyard Hill Dailly also offers an Education and Training fund, which you can find here.
