What is the EnviroGrant scheme and who can apply?

The EnviroGrant funding scheme is run by recycling contractor Veolia in partnership with Telford and Wrekin Council and is part of the added value secured through the Waste Management Contract. The scheme has supported over 175 community projects since it began in 2014 totalling more than £165,000 for local groups and communities.

EnviroGrant awards grants of up to £1000 for projects that benefit the local community or the environment. This could be projects that improve or protect the local environment through practical action or education, or projects that improve the quality of life for the local community by providing or improving facilities and resources.

Funding can be awarded for a variety of projects and activities including promotion and marketing, education and awareness raising, practical equipment and project running costs.

The fund is aimed at projects requiring up to £1,000. There is a limited amount of money available and consequently applications cannot be made by groups who were successful in the immediately previous round.

To apply, groups must be properly constituted not-for-profit organisations in the borough of Telford and Wrekin.
