The Sea-Changers is currently seeking applications for its grant programmes to create a world where the seas and shores are clean and healthy and marine species are protected.
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.

Grant Categories
- Main Grants
- For grants between £500 and £2,500.
- Two grant rounds per year.
- Small Grants

Eligible Projects
- 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.
- 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 the Sea-Changers grant will be used to fund, as well as how the funding fits into the wider finances of the project.

- They welcome applications from a variety of groups and entities.
Ineligible
- 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.
Deadlines
