The Regenerative Futures Fund is a co-designed, community-rooted initiative to tackle poverty, racism and climate change in Edinburgh. A pooled fund providing unrestricted long-term funding, and decisions made by residents with lived experience, it is reshaping how funding can empower and transform. The programme was designed between 2022 and 2024, the capacity building phase launched in 2025, and the ten-year programme starts in 2026. Our first Annual Report was published in late 2025.
