Funding to Protect Marine & Land-Based Habitats & Species in the UK Overseas Territories (UK & UK Overseas Territories)

UK registered charities working in partnership with local Territory-based NGOs can apply for grants of up to £150,000 for practical conservation activities that support the protection and restoration of marine and land-based habitats and species in the UK Overseas Territories.

The John Ellerman Foundation expects to make a variety of small, medium and larger grants, and will consider short-term grants as well as multi-year funding for periods of up to three years to support project and core costs. The Foundation will also consider funding organisational capacity building, policy related work, acquisition of land, and advocacy for the creation and implementation of legislative frameworks.

The funding is made available through the UK Overseas Territories Fund which closes to applications at 5pm on the 19th September 2022.

The John Ellerman Foundation  will be running two virtual one-hour drop in sessions on Zoom to answer any questions applicants might have. These will be held on 3rd August at 3.00pm (UK time) and 30th August at 2.30pm (UK time). To attend one of these, email sufina@ellerman.org.uk for the Zoom link.
