Looking for funding to support your project, strengthen your organisation, or bring a new idea to life?
Meet the Funders 2026 invites community groups, charities and third sector organisations from across the Scottish Borders to St Boswell’s Village Hall for a chance to connect directly with a wide range of funders, ask questions, and explore the opportunities available to help their ideas grow.
This in‑person event brings more than 20 funders together under one roof, giving you the chance to speak face‑to‑face with representatives, understand what they’re looking for, and gather practical advice to help you submit clearer, stronger and more confident funding applications. Borders Community Action staff will also be available throughout the day to discuss your projects, challenges and next steps.

Champion Skills Share
The funding we have received through the Communities Mental Health and Wellbeing Fund has enabled the Champion Skill Share Group to look forward to the year ahead, in the knowledge that we can afford to pay for our hall rental and the soup and sandwich lunch we provide to the members of the group. Sitting down to eat our lunch together is important to our group as it enables everyone to engage socially with each other whether through chat and discussion or through serving food to each other, Some members of the group have started to bring in their own delicious home baking to share. As a result of the social interaction we have observed friendships developing and the growth of confidence among the members of the Group. The funding has also given us the confidence to buy craft materials and board games, it has enabled us to pay for transport to story telling sessions at the Greener Peebles Community Garden, for a group trip to the National Museum of Scotland and a planned trip to First Ministers Questions at the Scottish Parliament in the future
