📣Families across Scotland can now apply for over £330 to help with the costs of preparing for primary school, as applications for the The Scottish Government Best Start Grant School Age Payment open today (1 June 2026).

The payment, unique to Scotland, is available to eligible families with children born between 1 March 2021 and 28 February 2022. It is designed to ease the financial pressures that come with a child starting primary one and can be spent on anything families need – from clothes and stationery to school trips.

For some time, we have been proud to provide subsidised transport to and from medical appointments for our local community.

Unfortunately, due to a lack of funding, this service must be withdrawn with immediate effect.

The committee will be reviewing this data and exploring future funding opportunities, with the hope of reinstating the service in the future. We thank everyone for their support and understanding. Forth & District Development Trust
