Community

Falck has a policy to utilize, when practicable, local contractors for construction, operation, and maintenance work. Previous experience has shown that this policy has generated significant opportunities for local businesses.

In order to provide community benefit, Falck Renewables has a policy of establishing a wind farm trust fund, to enable support to be given to local community-based social, educational and environmental initiatives. A commitment to this sort of investment in the local areas will enable assistance to be given to, for example:

* Initiatives to promote sustainable local site development and tourism
* Environmental education initiatives;
* The promotion of local recreation infrastructure such as improvements to existing community infrastructure such as bridleways, footpaths, new cycleways, playgrounds and permissive paths; and
* Other community-led projects.
