AN industrial landscape between Falkirk and Grangemouth is
set to be transformed into an inspirational green space which will be
open and accessible to all, thanks to a massive £25 million grant from
the Big Lottery Fund to the innovative Helix project in Falkirk.
This massive injection of funding, planned to take place over the next six years, will allow the Helix project to radically transform the environment in the Forth Valley as part of the BIG Lottery Fund’s Living Landmarks programme. This award is the first of its kind in Scotland through this programme, and the largest ever awarded by BIG to individual projects so far. |
