£150,000 Funding up for grabs across Scotland
Fifteen local community groups across STV regions in the North, East and West are set to compete for up to £50,000 of National Lottery funding each.
The People's Projects is giving these groups a chance to go head to head to compete in a public vote to help them make an extraordinary difference to their community.
For 13 years, the Big Lottery Fund, STV and The National Lottery have teamed up to give the public a chance to decide where National Lottery money should go in their local area.
The Big Lottery Fund distributes money raised by National Lottery players to communities across the UK.
Designed to celebrate some of the incredible projects the Big Lottery Fund has supported over the past year, 95 community-based groups are now shortlisted across the UK.
In each region, the three with the most public votes will receive grants of up to £50,000. This will help them to continue their work to bring people together, build stronger communities and make a difference to people's lives.
The entire amount up for grabs across the UK is a life-changing £3 million.
Voting opens at 9am on Monday 16 April at www.thepeoplesprojects.org.uk.
STV2's Live at Five programme will feature the projects at 5pm over five nights, starting on Monday 16 April.
