Find a Funder for Your Project

The Landfill Communities Fund (LCF) supports community and environmental projects close to landfill sites.
Most funding is delivered by funders who have their own criteria. Find which funders may be able to help, who are in your area, by using this search tool.
Most projects need to be within 10 miles of a landfill site to apply. Shortly there will be a tool to enable you to find out this information. Before this is available, please contact us to find out your nearest site.

Find Funding

Enrolling as an Environmental Body

While the majority of funding is provided by the funding bodies found on the above tool, in some cases, an organisation is able to receive funds directly from a Landfill Operator. If this is the case, you will need to enrol your organisation with us. You can do this on the link below by registering a new Environmental Body, however, if you are unsure, please contact us to find out if your organisation need to enrol.
