Jack’s Lane Wind Farm Community Fund

The Jack’s Lane Wind Farm Community Fund is funded by Jack’s Lane Energy Limited and aimed at small community led organisations.

This Fund is for projects which will benefit the residents of the following parishes: North Creake, South Creake, Stanhoe, Syderstone, Bagthorpe with Barmer, Barwick, Bircham, Burnham Market, Docking, East Rudham and Tattersett.

Preference will be given to projects that are located within 5km of Jack’s Lane Wind Farm turbines, however projects from further afield can be considered provided the project is deemed to be of benefit to those living and working within the area of benefit.

How to apply

Before starting an application, please check that you meet NCF’s general eligibility criteria. When you are ready to apply, complete the online application below. Decisions will be made by the middle of June 2025.

Applications are also considered on a rolling basis if the project is time critical and there is an urgent need for funding. This opportunity is subject to funding being available.

The purpose of the Fund is to support any type of activity that involves local people through small community organisations and benefits their community. Activities must provide some measure of economic, environmental, educational, social or cultural benefit for people living in the area.

This year is the 10th anniversary of the Jack’s Lane Wind Farm Community Fund. In celebration, the maximum grant size has been increased to £10,000. However, this funding programme will still adhere to the same criteria and prioritise local involvement in small organisations. Jack’s Lane Energy Limited will pay annually into the Fund while the Jack’s Lane Wind Farm is operational.
