At Aberdour SOUP – The Big Community Pitch, local residents voted on six community projects designed to make a positive difference in the village.
The £6,000 community fund was shared between the projects in proportion to the votes they received, allowing all six ideas to receive support and begin moving forward.
This page provides an overview of the funded projects. Each project has its own dedicated page where you can learn more about the idea, follow progress updates and see how the funding is being used.
