3 Mar 2023: Edinburgh Community Climate Fund: Grant Awards.
The next phase of the Edinburgh Community Climate Fund (ECCF) is getting underway.
The City of Edinburgh Council has set up the £100,000 fund to help communities to develop and choose projects aimed at making Edinburgh a greener city.
Community, voluntary and non-profit organisations from across the city have submitted over 50 proposals for up to £20,000 each. These community projects have diverse aims including to reduce household carbon emissions, encourage dialogue about climate change and support the city’s net zero effort.
We need your help to decide what gets funded by voting for your favourite ideas.
You have a total of 5 votes to use and can only vote once for a project. Please consider all the projects before making your final decision.
Voting is simple and easy. For adults, you can vote by using myaccount. This is a secure way to access a range of Scottish public services online using just one username and password. We have guidance on registering on our website.
For those under 18 wishing to vote this can be done through Young Scot using your Young Scot NEC number. School libraries will be offering supported voting.
Supported voting will also be available at all public libraries across the city. Please visit your local library for more information and to get help to vote for your favourite chosen projects.
