    Moray Coastal Community Fund – Voting Now Open!


    Open from Wednesday 1 November to 5pm on Wednesday 3 December

     

    Moray Council is inviting residents to help allocate £133,000 from the Coastal Communities Fund Grant Scheme.


    There are 15 projects to choose from, each project shows a brief description outlining the benefits, why it matters and why it deserves your vote.  Please review all projects before selecting your five favourite projects.


    Each person can only submit their vote once and must choose five projects.


    Choosing five ensures funding reflects priorities across Moray, not just individual local areas. All voting is anonymous, to encourage broad participation.

    Funding will be awarded to the projects with the highest number of votes, and successful applicants are expected to be notified by Friday 5 December 2025.


    Cllr Marc Macrae, Chair of Moray Council’s Economic Development and Infrastructure Services Committee, said:


    “This fund is a fantastic opportunity for local people to shape the future of their coastal communities. Every vote counts, so we encourage everyone to get involved and support the projects they believe will make the biggest difference.”
