  • We have a map! We are primarily focussed on the areas of Pairc, Kinloch, and North Harris, although we also fund island-wide initiatives.

  • We support organisations who have established themselves with appropriate diligence, so that we are confident that any grants are well invested.

    In exceptional circumstances we would consider crisis support for individuals who live within our area, but this would be a rare exception.

    By funding organisations we can undertake due diligence and have full confidence in the best use of our funds.

  • We have made clear our purposes and if you grant application matches those purposes and you are based within our area, then you are well placed to receive funding where it is available.

    If we need more information to help reach a decision, we would respond back to you accordingly. If you aren't sure, or feel like you need clarity before an application, please contact us to have a conversation which can help us both.

  • Yes, we are happy to support, but you will ultimately need the information that we need to make a decision. We want our process to be fair and accessible to all, so if you have additional needs which mean you need a different approach, please contact us.

  • You can become a member, and then you can get involved as a Board Member.

  • Although we originally expected to be very involved in the Bheinn Mhor Windfarm, its development did not come about as planned meaning we don’t actually have a windfarm.

    Thankfully, we received funding as part of the initial work on that development, which we have managed carefully to bring maximum positive impact to the surrounding communities.

    We are committed to supporting our communities and area in the most effective way possible, and we are proud of what we have achieved so far.
