We’re really proud to have partnered with Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games as its Official Nature & Carbon Neutral Supporter.
Together we’ll assist their pledge to leave a carbon-neutral legacy - because when we look after nature, it benefits your water too!
Our Community Fund is giving away more than £10million over 5 years to support new projects by local charities and community groups in the Severn Trent region.
To maximise the legacy of the Games and our environmental partnership, Severn Trent Community Fund is looking for new projects that reduce carbon and help communities care for nature.
And we need your help! All of our wonderful customers will get the chance to vote for their favourite projects in spring 2022.
How it works and who can apply
Applications open Monday 10 January 2022 and close Sunday 20 February 2022.
Funding is available to non-profit organisations in our region.
The organisation must have an average annual income of less than £500,000 over the last three years.
Eligible organisations can apply for £5,000, £10,000 or £20,000 of funding.
Funding will be awarded to new projects aiming to boost environmental sustainability, reduce carbon and help communities care for nature.
Projects must link to at least one of our key themes:
- Green spaces
- Recycling and making the most of resources
- Water saving heroes
Explaining the key themes
