2023 Community Benefit Fund awards
The CBF opens to applications once a year, usually in August, with funds distributed in December. If additional donations and contributions are available then we will be able to assist more projects and have more than one round of awards each year.

This round of funding was resourced from surplus income from the Broom Power Hydro scheme, plus donated interest from shareholders. If you would like to donate to the fund please contact LUCT below to find out how, if you are a tax payer please ask for a gift aid form which will add 25p to every £1 you donate.
Our sincere thanks to the independent CBF panel of volunteers, whose work to award this funding is much appreciated. Panel members come from all parts of our community and meet once or twice a year to disburse available funds. If you would like to be considered for the panel, please contact LUCT at the address below. You must be resident within the LUCT remit area, which extends from Elphin in the North down to Gruinard in the south.
