Investing in Communities
Community Benefit Fund
Outer Dowsing Offshore Wind plans to launch a community benefit fund after the project reaches financial close, estimated for 2027. The fund is currently in development, but following early consultation with communities, it is likely that the fund will support projects that fall within the following themes:
Nature positive
Supporting local biodiversity and improving access of communities to local sites of interest.
STEM and Skills
Investing in science, technology, engineering and maths education to help develop the skilled workforce of the future.
Community health and wellbeing
Investing in community activities that will support the health and wellbeing of those closest to the project area.
More details about the development of the Community Benefit Fund can be found in the Community Liaison Group presentations [hyper link to the Feb 2024 CLG presentation]
