Biffa Award Main Grants Scheme

The Biffa Award Grants Scheme is offering £10,000–£75,000 in grant funding for projects under four different themes: community
Buildings, Recreation, Cultural Facilities and Nature Recovery. They provide funding to create or improve community amenities
and protect nature that fall under these themes. For example, upgrading kitchens, meeting rooms and toilets in village halls and community facilities; creating new playparks; installing new lighting and exhibitions within theatres and museums; or establishing and/or improving land
to protect nature’s recovery. Spaces must be within five miles of a significant Biffa Operation or within 10 miles if this is an active Biffa Landfill Site (they have a postcode checker on their website to show if your space is eligible.) Priority is given to projects that demonstrate wider community benefit and need. They ask that your building is used by many groups regularly each week, benefiting people of different ages and demographics.
Applications for projects in places of worship must show that they serve the wider community, similar to a village hall or community centre attracting significant wider weekly group use. A Third Party Contributor should be identified to fund 10% of the application value.
