Examples of the type of projects which have received awards are:

  • Community shops and local products.
  • Projects that work with disadvantaged young people.
  • Fund raising events for community action; so that the funds raised are not used in putting on the event.
  • Projects to develop sustainable technologies such as renewable energy schemes.
  • Projects that communicate and celebrate the history and culture of this area.

What do we want to fund in the future?

This is a fund that seeks to foster innovative ways of working and living in the AONB, so we hope that you will come up with ideas that we have never thought of!
