Landscape Partnership Scheme - East Ayrshire, Scotland

The CCLP, funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund over 5 years completing in September 2025, is a partnership led by East Ayrshire Council. It delivers 22 community-led natural heritage, built heritage and cultural heritage projects to breathe life back into the landscape.

The CCLP provides an opportunity to re invigorate life in the landscape based on the lessons of the past, life in the present and a vision of life in the future.
