Calling for Residents and Community Organisations

March 2025

Written by Aala, Andy & Leah

We now have two routes in for people and communities in Edinburgh to get involved in Regenerative Futures Fund!

For Individuals: Join The Residents Group

We are bringing together people who live in Edinburgh to decide who gets funded for 10 years!

Group members will

• have lived or be living in poverty and/or have experienced racism

• have lived in Edinburgh for at least the past year and plan to stay here

For Community Organisations: Eligibility Checker & Guidelines

During the Fund’s co-design stages, participants spoke about the challenges that small, grassroots and diverse-led organisations face when trying to access funding to sustain their organisations.

The fund will have a process where organisations complete a simple eligibility checker, that they can access below or may be referred by partners within the Regenerative Futures Fund network. This form will be open from February until 22 April 2025.

Eligible organisations and collectives will then be invited, with support if required, to submit a written expression of interest in May 2025.

For Everyone: Spreading The Word in Edinburgh!

We would appreciate it if community organisations would share the opportunity for residents with their members, participants and other communities they work closely with.
