2023 Hillhead of Auquhirie Wind Farm Community Fund

The Hillhead of Auquhirie Wind Farm Community Fund is now open for applications from groups and projects which benefit the communities living in the following Community Council areas:

  • Arbuthnott
  • Catterline, Kinneff and Dunnottar
  • Mearns
  • Stonehaven & District

Fern Community Funds, the energy company who maintains the Hillhead of Auquhirie Wind Farm fund, will support local community projects during the 25-year lifetime of the wind farm. This year there is £13,150.57 available for distribution.

A copy of the application form is attached, in both PDF and Word formats, as well as a PDF copy of the guidance sheet. Applications have to be submitted by the 30th June 2023. A panel made up of representatives from the Community Council areas along with a representative (non-voting) from Kincardineshire Development Partnership (KDP) will then meet to consider the applications.

Please contact KDP directly if you have any queries. They can be contacted on 07903 156864 or email windfarms@kdp.scot.
