West Lothian LEADER launch

West Lothian has been awarded £2.17 million for community led local development in rural West Lothian.

Administered under the Scottish Rural Development Programme Leader is a European grant scheme that supports innovative and original projects that are driven and run by local communities, businesses and organisations. It also focuses on co-operation between groups both local and national and even cross Europe.

At the event you will hear from projects funded in their last programme, learn more about their Local Development Strategy and how the public, private and third sector can work together to achieve their goals.
