Press release of our forthcoming project with Foundation Scotland to review the design, operation and governance of Community Benefit Funds (CBFs).
CBFs accounts for ~£25m in Scotland alone but are expected to grow dramatically as onshore/offshore wind boom and newer sectors like nature-based carbon offsetting gain momentum.
An exciting 6-month project with colleagues to explore best-practice today and how we can fine-tune these funds for tomorrow.
Community Benefit Funds – a review of design, operation and governance | Foundation Scotland
Over the last 15 years, community benefit funds from onshore wind renewable projects have become a valuable – even critical – source of independent funding into some of Scotland’s communities.
