Cairngorms Local Action Group

The fund is made up of European Commission LEADER funds and funds from supporting agencies and is an opportunity for communities to realise ideas and ambitions that they may have been considering.

The main aims of this fund are:

  • Revitalising Communities

  • Progressive Rural Economies 

Whether it is a community facility, historic asset, a publication, a research study, a business grouping or new interpretation and pathworks, LEADER can consider it. Ideas which support the local economy, help the natural environment, women or young people may apply as can projects related to the culture of the area.

Funding support, mainly for land based businesses, is also available through the Scotland Rural Development Programme.

LEADER funding, in general, may not be used with other forms of European funding.

Visit the Cairngorms Local Action Group website where you will find lots of useful information including an application form and the latest list of approved projects.
