The Love Essex Fund returns

Calling all waste-reduction enthusiasts! You could be eligible for one of our £500 micro-grants. Applications for the Love Essex Fund are now open.

The Love Essex Fund supports local organisations, individuals, and schools with projects that create or inspire a reduction in household waste.

Receive a £500 micro-grant

To be eligible for a £500 micro-grant, your project must:

• Help to reduce household waste
• Encourage people to reuse or repair household items
• Be based in Essex

Previous recipients can apply again, ideally with new projects, but continuation and expansion of previously funded projects will still be considered for new funding.
