RES, the British independent renewable energy company that developed the nine turbine wind farm, has established a Community Fund to provide £36,000 per year (index linked) to support local community projects during the lifetime of the wind farm.
Applications from charitable and community organisations are now invited for the 2018 fund, which is the fifth year of the funds.
Completed applications to the Fund must demonstrate that their activities will benefit the communities living and working within 5km of Roos Post Office. This area includes the parishes of Burton Pidsea, Rimswell, Halsham and Roos.
Application forms and guidelines can be obtained from East Riding Voluntary Action Services (ERVAS) – http://ervas.org.uk/funding-opportunitiesnews/
