Since 1998 Here We Are (HWA) registered charity SC027715, has been a community resource providing information on the development and history of the parish of Cairndow/Kilmorich in Argyll.  It seeks to maximise the benefits of stimulating and satisfying curiosity about a local community in order to bridge the gap between visitor and visited.  It has an extensive collection of photographs and has mounted several online and physical exhibitions.

At its centre near Cairndow, at the head of Loch Fyne, HWA shows how a rural community, while loyal to its roots, makes its way in the modern world.  HWA has created two renewable energy companies and is recognised as a social capital champion by Assist Social Capital and the Scottish Communities Foundation.

We will be supportive of an applicant’s suggested initiatives.

PRIORITIES

· Creating links between the existing projects and archives generated by HWA and assisting in updating and extending them

· Developing new project ideas that link Landscape, Social History and the issues facing rural communities

· Building local and regional collaborations with other organisations to develop beneficial projects and activities and to raise the profile of HWA

TERMS
