Tender Opportunity: Kirkcowan Community Development Trust – Community Action Plan
We are currently looking for tenders to create a Community Action Plan for the Kirkcowan Community Development Trust.
Kirkcowan is a small community in south west Scotland that has an estimated population of 500. Kirkcowan Community Development Trust (KCDT) is the local anchor organisation, founded in 2015 with the primary purpose of developing and delivering projects using windfarm money, along with distributing these funds to other community organisations active in the area. KCDT has an active Board of Directors, which also includes representatives drawn from the Community Council.
KCDT last undertook and in-house community action planning process in 2019-2020 with the resulting Action Plan covering 2020-2025.
This is now expiring, and the Board is keen to assess progress and open a new community-wide conversation about priorities for the next 3–5-year period. This will enable KCDT to maximise the opportunity provided by community benefit funds it receives and identify where resource and additional funding may be required.
If you are interested, please submit your tender response to sam@foundationscotland.org.uk by 5pm on the 30th June 2025.
