Biffa Awards is offering grants of between £250,000 and £1 million to support capital projects that address either of the following themes (the project must not cross over the two themes):
- Built Environment projects should restore, modernise and improve facilities such as cultural, heritage or visitor centres. Applicants should be able to demonstrate regional or national significance and how the facility will be inclusive and how it will inspire creativity and participation amongst tourists and day visitors. The facilities must be open to the general public for a published period of at least 104 days each year.
- Natural Environment projects should support a variety of living things including all species of plants and animals, along with the habitats and natural processes that support them. Projects should support the delivering of commitments within their country’s Environmental Improvement Plan, legally-binding targets from the Environment Act 2021 or priorities identified within Local Nature Recovery Strategies.
The deadline for Expressions of Interest is 29 May 2026.
