Our primary purpose is to receive grants from windfarms and distribute those funds across community groups in the area . We do lead on projects ourself and apply for extra funds to match our own to host activities and celebrations and operate larger scale projects that are more inclusive than just a set group of people or organisation To administer the grant funding we accept applications from the community along with other relevant documents and the directors meet 4 times a year to award or decline grants . These grants are then monitored and evaluations filed by recipients along with receipts and evidence of payment. To run our wider projects we either have a selected director/s to oversee a project and sometimes employ sub contractors to deliver said project. The same diligence is shown to all funding and evaluations and evidence is stored accordingly
