Scotmid is offering small grants of up to £500 to support local community projects and initiatives within areas served by Scotmid stores.

Funding priorities include:

active lifestyles and healthy ageing
arts, culture, and heritage
children, youth, and families
health, wellbeing, and mental resilience
sustainability, equity, and digital inclusion

Applicants must be community groups, or individuals acting for the wider benefit of their local area, and reside within the boundaries of a Scotmid Regional Committee. (Schools may also apply for non-statutory activities such as breakfast clubs.) These funds may be used for purchasing equipment, organising events, or supporting fundraising efforts.

There is no application deadline, but applications should be submitted at least 12 weeks before funds are required.
