North Ayrshire Council has shared the latest statistics for its participatory budgeting processes during 20/21.

With a total budget of £180,000, North Ayrshire saw 3,5000 votes with 80% of applications successful.

6 Locality steering groups virtually short-listed all the applications received for Arts and Culture and Locality Funding and, those that met the funding criteria were funded (this year without a vote; this part of the process will be re-introduced this year).

The Youth PB funding process was led by the Young People’s steering group and all short-listed applications were voted on by Young People, aged 8-25 years.

Voting took place either in School via mentimeter or on the Young Scot website.
