Natural Kirklees Grants
Natural Kirklees Grant Schemes
From time to time and dependant on our available funds Natural Kirklees offer small grants to its member groups to help in specific, finitely timed projects to help them improve the Green Space the group members volunteer in or to pay for training of volunteers. The trustees of Natural Kirklees consider all applications from members and the only conditions are that the work, must improve the natural environment or encourage the public to visit the site and has not yet started. Additionally, the group must be constituted, hold a bank account in the name of the group (or its parent group), submit accounts of the grant expenditure on request and allow the trustees to visit and confirm the work has been undertaken as agreed at the end of the project. The grants were first awarded in April 2020, unfortunately, coincidently with the start of the Covid pandemic. If there is a current grant scheme on offer you can find the application form as the next document in this category. There are also updates on grants we have previously awarded.
