As part of our campaign, we’re proud to spotlight the incredible work of Huntly Sports Trust - a local organisation transforming access to sport, fitness and wellbeing for people of all ages.

Thanks to the Clashindarroch Wind Farm Community Fund (alongside support from local partners), Huntly Sports Trust has completely transformed its outdated all-weather pitch into a modern, energy-efficient and fully accessible sports hub.

Now in daily use by local schools, rugby clubs, youth teams and athletes, the upgraded facility features:

✅ FIFA-approved 3G surface
✅ Modern LED floodlighting
✅ Open 7 days a week to the whole community.

Backed by the Community Benefit Fund linked to Clashindarroch Wind Farm and supported by Vattenfall, this project shows how renewable energy investment can help create inclusive spaces, strengthens wellbeing and supports long-term community regeneration.

Because it’s not just about generating energy, it’s about empowering people.

As part of our campaign, we’re proud to share the story of Gordon Rural Action and their vital Baby Bank service in Huntly, made possible with support from the Clashindarroch Wind Farm Community Fund.

The Baby Bank provides free essential items for families with young children, from prams and highchairs to nappies, clothing and toiletries, helping remove financial pressure at what can be an incredibly challenging time.

Community funding played a crucial role during Gordon Rural Action’s recent building works, ensuring services could continue uninterrupted while facilities were improved for the future.
This is what community investment looks like in action: practical support, delivered locally, changing lives every day.

Funded through the voluntary Community Benefit Fund from Vattenfall’s Clashindarroch Wind Farm, this is one of ten stories celebrating a decade of impact across rural Aberdeenshire.
