Miller Homes Scotland West is launching the first round of its Community Fund in 2026, welcoming inspiring local causes and groups in Paisley to apply for a share of £10,000. The homebuilder is calling on groups that are looking to make lasting impact to the community, particularly near its Thornly Park development, to get involved. Applications are now open and close on Wednesday 29 April 2026.

Since its launch in 2022, the Community Fund has made a significant difference to local communities across Scotland, awarding £105,000 to organisations supporting people and projects in areas close to Miller Homes developments. Across the UK, the initiative has distributed more than £400,000 to good causes, helping a wide range of projects from music groups and sports teams to foodbanks and community spaces.

The homebuilder is looking for applications of all types in the Paisley community, whether it is an ongoing service provided to locals or project-based initiatives.

Andrew McArthur, Regional Operations Director for Miller Homes Scotland West, said: “Community is at the heart of everything we do at Miller Homes, and we warmly encourage local causes in Paisley that are making a positive impact to apply.

“We are committed to supporting the communities where we build through our Community Fund grant, and we take great pride in helping to strengthen neighbourhoods and enhance wellbeing, education and local facilities for those who call Paisley home.”

Local groups will be asked to illustrate how they would use the grant to benefit the community, with support ranging from a minimum of £250 to a maximum of £2,000.

Successful groups will be awarded mid-June.
