Angus Council has announced that their Angus Place Prosperity Programme is now live.

Funded by the UK Shared Prosperity Fund and the Scottish Government Place-Based Fund, the programme is aimed at supporting communities in taking ownership or redeveloping land or buildings. It can also help to deliver community-led projects.

We have aligned the funding to streamline delivery and increase the impact of place-based investment in our communities.

The Angus Place Prosperity Programme will provide support to projects, from their first concept, through development and on to full delivery, bringing community-based ideas and projects to life.

Communities Convener Mark McDonald said: "Funding such as this underpins our determination to create vibrant communities, bringing people and places together. As councillors, we hear at first-hand about the aspirations that many people and organisations have for the places where they live and work and I am sure we will see an enthusiastic response to this funding opportunity."

There are three streams to the Angus Place Prosperity Programme:

• Angus Feasibility Fund

• Angus Place-Based Investment Fund

• Angus Green Space fund

The closing date for applications is Monday 24 July 2023 at 5pm.
