Description
Sustainable Steps Wales – Egin Grants is run by the National Lottery Community Fund and made possible by Dormant Assets Funding. It supports community groups in Wales already taking climate action, as well as groups ready to put an idea into practice. A project’s main aim must be to help its community engage with climate change and take steps towards more sustainable living.
The funder wants groups to consider their activities’ effects on nature and limit potentially damaging practices where possible. It is also interested in benefits such as improved wellbeing, stronger relationships between people and organisations, and greater biodiversity. Applicants should be open to learning and plan to share what they learn.
