Leith Chooses 2025 - 2026

Closes 10 Feb 2026

Introduction

Leith Chooses gives the people of Leith a unique opportunity to choose, by vote, which local projects they think will benefit the community most and should get funding. Many interesting and worthwhile community projects have applied for funding. Sadly they can’t all be successful, so your vote really counts.

Rules for voting

  • You must be 8 years old or over.
  • You must live, work, study (go to school or college), or volunteer in Leith (verifiable by postcode).
  • You can  participate once in the online voting process, but as part of the process you can vote for several projects. You can also participate once at the in-person voting day. 

How is the area 'Leith' defined?

Leith is defined by the Leith Neighbourhood Network area plus that of the three Leith Community Councils. The area referred to is everything within the black line on this map.
