SSEN – Skye Reinforcement Fund Consultation

🌟  Have your say – Fund Consultation coming March 2026 – The Skye Reinforcement Local Fund? 🌟

a Skye Reinforcement Local Fund is being created for communities along the Skye Reinforcement Project route including:
🏘️ Skye & Raasay
🏘️ Glenelg & Arnisdale
🏘️ Glengarry
🏘️ Fort Augustus & Glenmoriston

The lifetime value of the Local Fund will be £5,455,000.

SSEN want this fund to be shaped with the communities it’s here to support.
If you live or work in the eligible community council areas — or represent a local organisation — they want to hear from you.

They’ll be asking for your views on:
📍 The area of benefit — where should the funding be available?
🎯 Funding priorities — what matters most to your community?
⏳ Fund structure — how long should the fund run and what should be available each year?

To gather your insights, They’ll be hosting in‑person and online sessions throughout the consultation period.
