A fund which will see West Lothian get a £1m spending boost has been criticised for not giving enough money to help one of the area’s most deprived communities.
Communities across West Lothian are set to see a £1m boost from the latest tranche of Holyrood funding for the Town Centre Fund, which has £500,000 being divided up by communities across all nine wards, and the Community Wealth Building Fund, which offers £500,000 planned for five specific projects in the county, each receiving £100,000.
But both have drawn criticism for the way they are distributed.
