Discover Community Benefits for Your Organisation

Amy Taylor on 5 August, 2026

Course Content

All Third Sector organisations can apply for Community Benefits which are special conditions in a public contract which require suppliers or developers to make additional contributions to improve the economic, social or environmental wellbeing of the local area. This one-hour session will introduce Community Benefits, explain how how they can help your organisation and demonstrate how you can request them using online portals.

Why It Is Important to Attend

Posting a request for a Community Benefit may result in you receiving goods, services, advice, or other support at no cost to your organisation. Previous successful bids in Midlothian have included a £2,000 donation to improve a community garden, PPE kit for a youth volunteering project, and new play bark supplied and delivered to a playgroup worth £3,000.
