What is LEADER and how to apply for funding

LEADER supports development in rural communities. It is about building networks, knowledge and skills within communities by encouraging people to work together on local and joint projects. We will explain where LEADER funding comes from, what the funding can support and how you can apply.

This presentation is aimed at people looking for funding for projects that will benefit communities within the Cairngorms National Park area.  Whether you have received LEADER funding from us before or you are new to LEADER as a funder, please do come along.

You will find out how the new LEADER programme can help your community/business to meet the aims of the Cairngorms Local Development Strategy and how, as a LEADER team, we can support you.
