New Funding for Aberdeenshire<br />

The Just Transition Capital Fund will support Scotland’s Northeast economy<br />

in its just transition to net zero and £333,333 will be available to third sector<br />

groups in Aberdeenshire. The capital fund is now open to applications from<br />

constituted grassroots community organisations and funds will be allocated<br />

through a Participatory Budgeting process – meaning the whole community<br />

has a say where the money is spent.<br />

✻<br />

Applications can be received for grants of up to £50,000.<br />

Aberdeenshire groups can apply for capital funding for equipment, land or<br />

property that will make a positive impact on your community in reducing the<br />

harmful emissions that have caused climate change.<br />

Applications can be accepted from a range of community, voluntary,<br />

and third sector ‘not for profit’ organisations, associations, groups and<br />

clubs or consortiums/partnerships who have a strong community<br />

focus for their activities.<br />

✻<br />

Support is available from the <strong>AVA</strong> team for completing the application form.<br />

This support can be accessed by filling in a Support Request Form on the <strong>AVA</strong><br />

wesbite and selecting ‘Just Transition Fund’ from the options list.<br />
