Bòrd na Gàidhlig
Taic Freumhan Coimhearsnachd
Taic Freumhan Coimhearsnachd is Bòrd na Gàidhlig’s primary fund for supporting community organisations in delivering projects to promote and increase the usage and learning of Gaelic at community level. This year we are bringing the Colmcille scheme together with Taic Freumhan Coimhearsnachd into a single fund to support community Gaelic usage.
The fund offers the opportunity to apply for up to 2 years’ worth of funding, for longer-term projects or those that are recurring annually. The estimated budget for the scheme is £200,000, pending confirmation of Bòrd na Gàidhlig’s 2025/26 budget. We expect that the fund will be competitive, as last year it was only possible to support 39 projects out of 100 applications.
This year we are particularly looking to support projects which support:
- Gaelic events in your community and online
- Projects and opportunities that encourage young people to use Gaelic together
- Projects that support Gaelic usage among families and between generations
- Adult Gaelic learning in the community
- Colmcille – Building connections between speakers of Gaelic and Irish
You should also be aware of the how your project may contribute to Bòrd na Gàidhlig’s Corporate Plan 2023-28 and the National Gaelic Language Plan 2023-28.
