About Us
The Money for Moray team is made up of 15 volunteer community representatives who came together in early 2016 to design and deliver a pilot Participatory Budgeting (PB) grant scheme in Moray. PB is a process whereby the residents of Moray decide how public money is allocated based on their needs and priorities.
Membership of the Money for Moray team comprises representatives from:-
Community Councils, Area Forums and the Moray Federation of Community Halls and Associations (MFCHA).
The team operates on an entirely voluntary and independent basis and its members are drawn from all parts of Moray.
