The purpose of the CWFF is to provide funding to Communities, within the local Wind Farm area (up to around 15km from the wind farm near Abington), for capital projects which will result in a range of local benefits for local people including employment and/or education opportunities and support the local economic prosperity of South Lanarkshire.

The Auchrobert Community Fund is funded by Falck Renewables from its Auchrobert wind farm in South Lanarkshire. The fund supports projects located within or directly benefiting the area of Blackwood and Kirkmuirhill and Boghead. Projects may be focused on general community activity or services/activities for specific groups (e.g.: families, older people, younger people, those with particular needs). However all projects must clearly be benefiting those who live within part or all of the area of benefit. Awards can support a wide range of costs and activities including equipment costs, running costs for local groups, staff or sessional worker costs, consultations, maintenance or refurbishment of community facilities.

This fund is for capital projects within 10km of a participating renewable energy development. It currently applies to the wind farms at Whitelee, Pates Hill, Stallashaw and Blacklaw. It will usually fund long-term projects to acquire, develop, improve and/or maintain a capital asset such as land, buildings or roads. Your project must meet one or more of the following priorities: to secure investment, create employment, provide training, promote or secure sustainable development; to relieve poverty, advance education and other social purposes beneficial to an eligible community; to preserve, protect or enhance the environment or heritage of Scotland, including any building; to promote and encourage environmental improvement or enhancement including the provision or upgrading of infrastructure; to provide or help provide facilities for recreation or other leisure activities.
