Regeneration capital grant fund open for applications

The joint COSLA and Scottish Government Regeneration Capital Grant Fund (RCGF) is once again open for applications.

Delivered in partnership with the Scottish Government, the fund supports locally developed regeneration projects that involve local communities, help to support and create jobs and build sustainable communities.

First stage applications for projects that can start in 2019/20 are now being requested and should be submitted by email to: rcgf@gov.scot by 5pm on 29th June 2018.

The template application form, further guidance and indicative timescale can be found on the Scottish Government website.

The fund, which has been developed in partnership with COSLA and local authorities, is open to all 32 Scottish local authorities and their Special Purpose Vehicles. An independent panel makes recommendations to the Scottish Ministers and COSLA on which projects should receive funding.

A list of 24 projects were awarded RCGF funding in 2018 to 2019.
