Results Night, Wednesday 15th February at 6:30pm, online
The Results / Awards Night for £eith Chooses 2022-23 will be held online on Wednesday 15th February at 6:30pm. Please get the date and time in your diary!
We tried to arrange a live, face to face event, but fell foul of the mid-term holiday and Council ‘Recess’ period, so – rather than further delay – we are going online again this time, via Teams.
If you have not yet received an invitation and link to the meeting, please email and request one, from: caroline.lamond@edinburgh.gov.uk
This will not be a long meeting but will be the first publication of the list of those local community groups that have won community funding this year, thanks to your votes. the list will also be published online, here, immediately following the meeting.

Phew! An extra 2 weeks to get your application in!
Due to the unexpected recent break in working patterns, for the Queen’s funeral events, we have extended the deadline for applications to £eith Chooses.
Please get your Application Form completed and in ASAP or at the very latest by 14th October 2022
Your project doesn’t need to be complicated. It needs to be deliverable in 12 months or less, and to offer clear benefits to members of the Leith community, especially some of our most vulnerable.
