Deadline: 30-Sep-21
The Sea Changer is inviting applications for its Main Grant Program. Sea-Changers gives one-off grants (i.e. not continual funding) to UK-based charities and not-for-profit organisations (including schools) carrying out marine conservation related activities.
Objectives
The projects they fund will achieve one or more of the following objectives:
- To address the root causes of marine conservation threats and challenges in the UK
- To prevent or reduce negative impacts on UK coastal and marine environments and/or species.
- To add to the body of knowledge about marine conservation threats and challenges in the UK.
Funding Information
- Up to £1,200.
What type of projects do they fund?
- Sea-Changers is particularly interested in grassroots projects that galvanise community action and projects that increase the number of people taking action for marine conservation.
- Data and results from research projects undertaken as a result of Sea-Changers’ grant funding must be made available to Sea-Changers and shared with appropriate marine databases when completed.
- They will consider partial funding of projects where other funds are also being sought or are already in place, but you will need to demonstrate exactly which elements of the project that the Sea-Changers grant will be used to fund, as well as how their funding fits into the wider finances of the project.
What don’t they fund
- Projects that have a political aim
- Applications solely to fund administrative or core operating costs
- Retrospective projects or funding requests
- Individuals or causes that will benefit only one person.
Eligibility Criteria
- Sea-Changers gives one-off grants (i.e. not continual funding) to UK-based charities and not-for-profit organisations (including schools) carrying out marine conservation related activities.
- They welcome applications from a variety of groups and entities.
