Nadara Gordonstown Wind Farm Community Fund

The fund supports projects that benefit people living in the area served by Auchterless, Inverkeithny & Fisherford Community Council and the Fyvie and Rothienorman sub-divisions of the area served by Fyvie, Rothienorman and Monquhitter Community Council. 

Launched in 2013 with a 25-year lifespan, the fund originally received £25,000 in its first year, and annual payments to 2018 were index linked to this amount.  During these first five years, donations to the fund were split on the basis of 80% of funds to Auchterless, Inverkeithny & Fisherford and 20% to Fyvie and Rothienorman.

In April 2019, Nadara made some additional funding available. The two community councils then agreed to revise the split for the following five years until March 2024. The sub-funds are now split at 64% for Auchterless, Inverkeithny & Fisherford and 36% for Fyvie and Rothienorman. 

In 2020, the annual donation from Nadara to the fund was £37,547, with just over £24,000 going to Auchterless, Inverkeithny & Fisherford Community Fund and just over £13,500 to Fyvie and Rothienorman Community Fund.
