Landfill Communities Fund Projects
WHAT HAVE WE DONE WITH LANDFILL COMMUNITIES MONEY? Solway Heritage has been administering
the Landfill Communities Fund (formerly known as the Landfill Tax Credit Scheme) since September 1997. Over the last
12 years, over £1.5 million has been contributed to 150 projects, across Dumfries and Galloway.
