cameron toll community fund

The Cameron Toll Community Fund supports local groups and community initiatives that bring benefits to communities in South Edinburgh.

As a neighbourhood centre at the heart of the community, the Fund aims to provide vital financial assistance to local projects which might include, but not be limited to, sports groups, music projects, environmental schemes, educational needs, and initiatives that support disabled people or the elderly.

The Community Fund will consider applications up to a maximum of £750 each quarter for clearly defined and costed projects. Each application will be considered at the end of each quarter alongside every other application received.  Applicants will be advised shortly after of the decision.

Claire Jefcoate, Centre Manager at Cameron Toll Shopping Centre said: “The centre is at the heart of the local community in South Edinburgh and the Community Fund aims to support local groups that play an important role in making the area a great place to live. Since the fund was launched, it has helped many local projects involved in sport, music, education, the environment, and supporting elderly people.

“We would encourage everyone to provide a clear purpose for their application and how the funding would be used.”
