New figures shared by the constituency's MP, Graeme Downie, show that over £1,177,000 of National Lottery funding has been awarded to local projects since April 2025. Since the first National Lottery draw in 1994, a total of £22.1 million has been invested in Dunfermline and Dollar, through 819 individual grants. Recent recipients in Dunfermline and Dollar include Kindred Advocacy, which received £443,686, and Hourglass (Safer Ageing), awarded £138,000 to support older people. Other grants have gone to Campaign Dunfermline Trust (£138,092) for community and heritage work, and Seal Dunfermline SCIO (£55,332) for local projects. Around 69 per cent of grants awarded in the constituency were for £10,000 or less, underlining the role of the National Lottery in backing smaller, grassroots organisations and community initiatives.
