SCOTTISH and Southern Energy (SSE) has announced a second round of resilience funding for communities.
The summer holidays may only just be starting but SSE is encouraging communities to think further ahead into what they might need to make periods of bad weather and weather emergencies easier.
There is £165,000 available for non-profit making organisations, community groups and charities working in its distribution area. This can be funding to protect vulnerable people during weather events or support local facilities and improve communication during periods of bad weather.
