The Enchanted Forest Community Fund is the grant-making arm of The Enchanted Forest Community Trust.
We are delighted to have awarded a record number of grants this year through The Enchanted Forest Community Fund, the grant-making arm of The Enchanted Forest Community Trust.
The highest ever figure of £97,815 has been awarded to 26 registered charities operating in Highland Perthshire.
The trust actively sought applicants to use the funds to:
- Help the people in need with the cost of living crisis in the Highland Perthshire area
- Help with battling child poverty and focus on child welfare.
- Increase inclusion, enablement, independence, mental health and wellbeing.
- Increase access to employment, volunteering, learning, culture, sport and leisure opportunities.
- Improve infrastructure that benefits the community.
- Promote sustainability through best practices.
The Enchanted Forest Community Fund was set up in 2015 to redistribute the proceeds from the annual event to the local community in Highland Perthshire. This year the fund was open to registered charities operating within Highland Perthshire who could apply for up to £10,000 from the fund to finance projects. A record number of applications were received this year.
The application process for 2024 is now closed. The 2025 application round will open early 2025.
