The Angus Place Prosperity Programme is now live.
Funded by the UK Shared Prosperity Fund and the Scottish Government Place-Based Fund, the programme is aimed at supporting communities in taking ownership or redeveloping land or buildings. It can also help to deliver community-led projects.
We have aligned the funding to streamline delivery and increase the impact of place-based investment in our communities.
The Angus Place Prosperity Programme will provide support to projects, from their first concept, through development and on to full delivery, bringing community-based ideas and projects to life.
Communities Convener Mark McDonald said: “Funding such as this underpins our determination to create vibrant communities, bringing people and places together. As councillors, we hear at first-hand about the aspirations that many people and organisations have for the places where they live and work and I am sure we will see an enthusiastic response to this funding opportunity.”
There are three streams to the Angus Place Prosperity Programme:
Guidance and criteria are available for the individual funding streams on the webpage.
Our dedicated Community Development Officers are available to provide guidance and support via CommEngagement@angus.gov.uk. If you want to talk a project through, or to look at the development of a project, you can also get in touch this way.
The closing date for applications is Monday 24 July 2023 at 5pm.
