Scotmid’s Community Grant Scheme (Scotland)

The Scotmid Co-operative is offering small grants of up to £500 to assist and support community projects and initiatives throughout Scotland.

Last year Scotmid awarded grants totalling £235,000 to organisations ranging from parent and toddler groups to national campaigns. Funding is concentrated on the areas of:

• +65 groups (age)
• Active Lifestyles
• Arts & Culture
• Children/Youth
• Community Group
• Co-operative
• Environment
• Fair Trade
• Health & Wellbeing
• Social Inclusion

To be eligible for funding, applicants must be a group or individual acting for the wider benefit of the local Community; and live within the geographic boundaries of one of Scotmid Regional Committees.

Schools are also eligible to apply for activities that are not part of their statutory responsibilities. This could for example include funding for a breakfast club.

Applications can be submitted at any time.
