Community Award Scheme Boosted by MP

Through the ‘It’s Your Community’ scheme, communications company O2 is contributing to the development and sustainability of society by enabling its customers, local people and employees to make a difference by contributing to local projects to improve local communities.

MP Pete Wishart is activeley encouraging constituents in Highland Perthshire to take advantage of the scheme.

He said: “If you could change one thing about where you live, what would it be? There is a huge range of groups and projects in Perth and North Perthshire which are more than worthy of this award and I would encourage any such project to apply.

 

“Turning derelict land into a playground, planting trees where none grew before , creating a wildlife pond where there was once a puddle , t-urning an abandoned building into an arts centre for young people. These are all ideas for projects," he explained.

Up To £1000
'It's Your Communiti ' is a new awards programme to help people come together to make a real difference to the communities in which we live. Awards of up to £1000 are available to local groups and individuals, for anything that you can show will benefit your community. Whatever your idea, simply fill in the form and do your best to persuade O2 . The awards themselves are administered, assessed and judged by the Conservation Foundation. If you have an idea, don't hold back - see what you can do," the MP urged.
