Welcome to Communities Channel Scotland.

Information and ideas for community groups in Scotland.

 

Cost of living

A range of vital services and sources of support are available in Scotland to help people, and to campaign for change, during the cost-of-living crisis. Rather than dulplicate what already exists, Communities Channel Scotland is linking to some of the key existing websites.

Equality

Your community group may campaign for equality. And even if equality isn’t a key focus, it is important to think about how your group is inclusive and promotes equality in its decisions and activities.

Climate change

The climate emergency is the most urgent issue facing humanity right now. It is also an issue of social and economic justice, since the impacts of climate change are worse for those who have the least wealth and power.


Funding

Pointing you in the direction of some of the most useful funding ideas, sites and resources.
