The Role of the Troon Community Council

I wanted to make you aware of the CEF which launched on Friday 19^th January 2024 and closes on Thursday 8^th February 2024.

South Ayrshire Council has been allocated funding from UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF) and I have recently came into post as External Funding Officer to support this fund.

Empowering communities is a national priority. It is an important part of public service reform, focusing attention on reducing disadvantage and inequality and improving outcomes for communities.

South Ayrshire Council is committed to promoting and supporting the principles of community empowerment and encouraging interest in community asset transfer, as well as groups taking ownership of local land and assets and driving forward community led regeneration.

The definition used in respect of community-led regeneration by the Scottish Government,  states that community-led regeneration is about “people identifying issues and opportunities in their local area; deciding what to do about them and making positive change in their communities.”Full information and guidance notes which details the full criteria as well as details on how apply can be accessed using the link below:

Please note the main objectives of the fund will be to assist groups with community empowerment through the development of cultural and heritage activities as well as sport and art.

 If you have any questions or queries relating to this fund please contact myself or grants@south-ayrshire.gov.uk

Kind Regards
