All funding applications for the Scottish Borders Council Queen's Platinum Jubilee Fund are shown on our website (link below). We are still working through some of the applications, so are unable to give final totals as yet but the website will be updated once all the applications are processed.
As at 17th May 2022 approximately £139,000 of funding has been provided to communities.
All events are being organised and arranged by our communities across the Borders, not Scottish Borders Council, therefore any enquiries in relation to programmes/leaflets/advertisements and further details of the events should be made directly to the relevant community groups. - Related links
