Orkney gets hat trick of grants
Orkney Island, off the coast of Scotland, has received funding for three separate redevelopment projects.
The Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF) has awarded the island investment of £2.8m, including Stage One passes for two major projects – a Townscape Heritage Initiative (THI) in Stromness, and a Landscape Partnership Scheme for Scapa Flow.
The third project, to help establish the Orkney Boat Museum, has received a Project Planning grant of £46,400.
The Scapa Flow project is led by Orkney Islands Council, with support from Scottish Natural Heritage, Royal Society for the Protection of Birds and Highlands and Islands Enterprise Orkney.
