Welcome to Glasu
Welcome to Glasu. Our activities are part funded through the
Rural Development Plan for Wales 2008 to 2013 which is financed by
the European Union and the Welsh Assembly Government, as well as
Powys County Council. We are a rural development initiative
providing assistance and support to businesses, individuals and
community groups in Powys.
Our new project for 2011 - 2013 is called 'A Resilient Powys'. This
aims to deliver a programme of support and financial assistance to
encourage innovative, bottom-up, sustainable and small scale
initiatives, led by individuals, businesses and communities. The
programme aims to support the diversification and sustainability of
the rural economy and improve the quality of life of Powys'
citizens.
There are five different project themes:
Farm Diversification
Business Innovation
Innovative Tourism
Community Resilience
Cultural Heritage
Glasu seeks to support individuals, communities and businesses to
become more resilient to the local, national and global economic
and environmental challenges that they face. The project runs from
1st March 2011 to 31st December 2013.
