Fife Council leases assets (normally land or buildings) at a subsidised rent to a wide range of voluntary groups, clubs and other community-based organisations in support of the council's commitment to creating thriving places where everyone can play a full and active part, to promoting healthy lifestyles and to building strong communities by recognising and supporting groups and organisations that make a difference in their communities.
The policy applies to all voluntary groups, registered charities, clubs, uniformed community groups and other community-based organisations as tenants of Fife Council assets.
In the case of social enterprises, support can be provided through a subsidised lease, but this should be for a limited period and at a reducing rate with the expectation that social enterprises aim to become self-financing.
The policy does not apply to commercial leases including those to professional sports clubs.
