Funding Scotland local sites

Funding Scotland is a free online funding search run by the Scottish Council for Voluntary Organisations (SCVO), the national membership organisation for the voluntary sector. Anyone can use it.

Funding Scotland Premium allows you to save searches, register for personalised email alerts, make lists, take notes, and download search results.

From 6 April 2021, only SCVO members and supporters can access Funding Scotland Premium at funding.scot.

This means the premium service is no longer available on the following local Funding Scotland websites:

The free funding search will remain available to all.

To understand how this affects you, you will need to check if your organisation is a current member or supporter. Before you read on, please check using the SCVO member database.
