In some areas communities have negotiated a payment from windfarm profits; ask your local authority for information. Organisations based in the Shotts, Allanton, Bonkle, and Hartwood areas of North Lanarkshire are invited to apply for support from the Blacklaw Windfarm Community Benefit Fund. Funding of up to £30,000 is available for initiatives that encourage the more efficient use of energy or provide, maintain or improve a public park on other community facility. The funding will be distributed to projects through the Environmental Key Fund.
