The Fallago Environment Fund has launched a special £100,000 Covid-19 grant scheme to help Borders and Gifford residents recover from the impact of the coronavirus crisis and lockdown.

Grants of between £500 and £5,000 are available to voluntary and community groups in the Scottish Borders and Parish of Gifford for projects that improve quality of life and wellbeing and help to reduce the negative impact of social isolation for local residents.

The limited-lifetime Programme will be administered by The Bridge – a Scottish Borders community development charity, which can be contacted by emailing fallago@the-bridge.uk.net.
