The Environment

The environment of Wales varies dramatically between North, South East and West of the country. From the mountains of the North to the valleys of the south, the Trust welcomes applications relating to environmental groups from both rural and urban areas in Wales.

Funding Priorities

The Trust encourages applications relating to recycling, developing green spaces, the development and promotion of green practices and the promotion of public transport schemes. Projects that improve the quality of Wales’ environment, protect and create a vibrant countryside and develop and promote sustainable land-use planning will be a priority for support.

The Trust aims to fund programmes that protect and enhance Wales’ natural heritage and promote its sustainable use and enjoyment in a way, which, contributes to local economic prosperity and social inclusion.

Funding under Youth Exchange programmes, in addition to the above, will be considered under this category
