What the charity is set up to do and how it does this:
The charity was set up to ensure the best use is made of the gift aid received from the local community led Achadaduie Windfarm (Fyne Energy Ltd) with the overall aim is to build a lasting legacy. We are currently implementing a programme of projects with professional bodies to improve the energy efficiency in village homes. We have purchased and will manage a recreational space and small woodland adjacent to Glenbarr's historical Doocot, which is proposed for maintenance and conservation. Within our 5 year plan is the aim to purchase a further area where a new community hub will be built. There are regular social gatherings to bring villagers together and the excitement of future plans and projects to look forward to. Where possible we plan to use local businesses/contractors to complete works to share funds within our area. Additionally villagers will be working on projects on a voluntary basis. We have taken on a dedicated executive team to help us drive forward the 5 year plan

From 09 March 2026, OSCR is required by law to publish the names of a charity’s trustees as part of its Scottish Charity Register entry. We are also required to publish each charity’s annual report and accounts as received from this date, which may include the names of certain individuals. The only exceptions to publication are where a charity or one of its charity trustees applies for this information to be excluded, and OSCR is satisfied that publishing it would jeopardise the safety or security of a person or premises.

If the charity trustee information on a Register entry appears blank, this may mean that an exemption applies or that the charity has not yet provided the required details to OSCR. Supplying this information will become mandatory as part of future annual submissions.
Copyright

From 30 June 2025, OSCR began collecting charity trustee information through OSCR Online. Providing this information is a legal requirement for all charities. The names of trustees will be published on the Scottish Charity Register from early 2026 to promote transparency and strengthen public trust in the sector.
