Community groups in Caithness are being urged to apply for a slice of £10,000 funding.
Whether it is a project for young people, a healthy living project, a crime prevention idea, a lunch club for older residents or a community art project, the Your Cash Your Caithness funding event can help.
Application forms to apply for up to £1,000 must be received by February 2.
The community will then get the chance to vote for the winners at an event in Thurso on February 29.
Applicants will be required to talk about their idea to the community.
Chairman of the Caithness committee, Councillor Matthew Reiss, said: “We are once again handing decision making back to the local community and it is the first stage in returning community empowerment to the most local level.
“I would encourage as many individuals or groups as possible to take part in this initiative to get the funding they are looking for. This will be the sixth Your Cash Your Caithness event and I have no doubt that this one will be every bit successful as the previous five.”
Application forms can be accessed online from the Highland Council website.
