Our SSE Scheme priorities

This is aimed at increasing the understanding of our working landscape and helping to protect traditional skills by raising awareness through interpretation, appreciation and maintenance of local heritage and cultural features.
There is also an opportunituy for a small number of projects to be supported under the LEADER theme of Village Renewal and Development. This is aimed at projects that enhance the local village environment, strengthen and generate community cohesion or encourage community events and activities.
