Clackmannanshire in Europe
Europe plays an important role in a wide range of day-to-day activities and, despite its size, Clackmannanshire is influencing national and international policy through its participation in European affairs.
The European flag or similar logo is seen throughout the county wherever funding has been obtained from Europe. The business parks at Dumyat and New Alloa, the refurbishment of Coalsnaughton Village Hall, Inglewood House and Alloa Tower, training projects including New Approaches and Accessing the Community as well as a range of business advice and support projects have all received European funding support in recent years.
The current 2007 - 2013 programme covers the lowlands and uplands of Scotland and has identified Clackmannanshire as one of 13 areas that has specific needs, particularly for those furthest from the labour market and those young people who are not in employment, education or training.
The Clackmannanshire Alliance (the local community planning partnership) has a current project funded through this programme called Clackmannanshire Works that targets a range of people and supports them towards employment.
