Project Idea? Collaboration!

PET actively supports innovative projects in the Findhorn Ecovillage and associated Community.

We support what you want to create.

We have provided assistance to and solutions for new projects aligned to our Vision, Mission and Aims.
Our experience in project-management goes from start-ups up to large (£500k+) grant projects.
And we have been managing a growing asset base for the Findhorn Ecovillage Community since 2011.

Collaboration with PET will benefit you in the following areas:

1. putting the Findhorn ethos into practice
2. charitable status and legal structure – immediate
3. independence guaranteed – as your project is aligned with our current Mission, Vision, Aims, with the Board delegating it’s executive authority to projects& diVisions
4. increased productivity and compliance – existing simple & effective business practices
5. reduced operating costs – do the math of DIY and DITogether…
6. enhanced Corporate Social Responsibility and Brand Perception with prospective donors
7. longer-term cooperation, support and collaboration is possible – from project to program

In sum: PET has practical experience at hand, leveraged over diverse projects and developments eg. experience in planning permission, grant management, project & program management, and especially in working together for the benefit of our Community of people.

We are also very interested in your ideas about new areas of community benefit¹ development. Clearly PET can benefit the community via projects outside it’s current Affordable Housing & Carbon Strategy programs, just as the community is continuing to develop in such areas as Culture, Economy, Education, Governance, Identity, Infrastructure, Institutions, Land, Natural resources, People, Politics, Technology, Wealth.

We’re proposing here to explore with you if synergies exist already or can be further developed via PET, or if perhaps a better vehicle exists through another of the many excellent community organisations! We’re open to🔀chat. And feel free to use the below forms.

Fill in our online idea summary form and send it to us, and we’ll get back to you quickly.
If you’re further along the planning process, check out our online detailed Project proposal form.
It contains the questions every funder is going to want to ask you.

We look forward to hearing from you!
