Community Fund
The aim of the Dudgeon Community Fund during the construction of the wind farm was to support a wide range of charitable, voluntary and community activities in communities directly impacted by the onshore construction activities associate with the infrastructure and the operations base of the Dudgeon Offshore Wind Farm. The Fund also supported projects to improve community infrastructure in these communities.
During that time grants totalling £231,925 were awarded to:
