Welcome to the new Highland LEADER Programme website

The Highland LEADER Programme will cover all of the Highland Council area, except for the settlement development area of Inverness (as detailed in the local plan) and the part of the Highland Council area within the Cairngorms National Park.

The aim of the Highland LEADER Programme is:

‘To enable people in the Highlands to realise their ambitions to live in communities where they can fulfil their personal, social and economic potential’

At its meeting on 29th October 2008, the Strategic LAG (Local Action Group) decided that it would open the programme for a shadow round of applications. The shadow round is open to applications which are time critical and have ALL match funding confirmed. Shadow round applications will be accepted up until 8th December 2008 with approvals in late January 2009.

The programme will be formally open for all other applications as of 11th December 2008.
