ENCOMM: helping to co-fund community projects in East Nairnshire
Put simply, ENCOMM manages and distributes community benefit funding received from local windfarms to support and improve the area where we live.
Join us at Fornighty Hall at 6pm
To find out what has been funded this year and to help us find some new
Committee members.
We would love to have some new faces who could help us to grow new projects for East Nairnshire.
We only meet quarterly and none of the responsibilities are onerous. Please consider becoming a trustee to continue this good work.
Contact us on encommtrustees@gmail.com for an informal chat.

As we move into 2025, we thought it was about time we updated you. ENCOMM has been a thing for five years! In this time ENCOMM has funded some very worthwhile projects. Most notably, the contribution to the refurbishment of Fornighty Hall which seems to be growing in popularity as a community hub, just as we hoped it would.
We said a fond farewell to founder chair, Linda Henderson – who deserves huge recognition for her efforts in setting up ENCOMM, along with Peter Arris, as Treasurer in 2019. Peter has recently hung up his treasurer’s hat and handed over to the very capable Diana Wilson. We would like to thank both Linda and Peter (not forgetting Helen Arris who has always supported in an unofficial capacity too).
May we take this opportunity to wish everyone a very Happy 2025! We look forward to receiving applications for your projects throughout the year. Quarterly review dates are the 15th of February, May, September and November. As always, let us know if you would like to know more about what we can do for you.
Best wishes,
The ENCOMM Trustees.
