The Moray Local Action Fund, which is delivered by the Moray Local Action Group (MLAG), is intended to enable community-led activity focusing on supporting a just transition to a wellbeing economy working for people, places and planet.

In particular, MLAG are particularly interested in applications seeking to address some of the root causes of poverty, supporting a sustainable carbon neutral future or helping reduce pressures on public services through prevention, community capacity building and increased community resilience.

Groups applying to the small fund can be awarded grants of up to £5000 while sums above that are available in the main fund. Applications for more than £30,000 will only be considered in exceptional circumstances.

Funding can be used to support revenue and/or capital expenditure.

Successful applicants will be informed by September 22 with their grants being disbursed the following months.

The deadline for applications is Tuesday, August 29 at 12 noon. Visit https://www.moraylag.org.uk/funding for more information and to apply
