Forth Valley Climate Action Hub Grants and Leadership Programme
Empowering Communities for Climate Action 2024/5
Grants and Leadership Training Opportunities open to applications
What is the Climate Action Hub?
24 regional Climate Action Hubs, backed by Scottish Government, now operate across Scotland. Climate Action Hubs are a ground-breaking initiative from Scottish Government’s Net Zero campaign created to empower communities to deliver climate action at a community level. To do this Climate Action Hubs offer a range of support, from helping people to better understand what is happening to our environment how they may be impacted directly and what they can do about it, to sharing learnings from other communities who have already begun measures to mitigate or adapt in their own regions of Scotland. By doing this Hubs aim to both inspire communities and provide knowledge and practical support.
The Forth Valley Climate Action Hub, delivered through FEL Scotland connects communities and supports their responses to the climate emergency, including by providing small grants for community-led climate action across the region
Forth Valley Climate Action Hub and FEL is grateful to the Scottish International Environment Centre (SIEC) for its investment in the Forth Valley Climate Action Hub and which has made this additional round of grants in 2024 possible.
We are pleased to be offering a suite of programmes and funds in this round. Read on below and get in touch with us at climate@felscotland.org for more information.
