New Fund Launched to Support Organisations to Become More Energy Efficient
Grants of up to £50,000 are available to help organisations across the UK to become more energy efficient. Charities working with disability, mental health or older people; hospices and palliative care organisations; historic buildings and landscapes; libraries and archives; and museums, galleries and performing arts organisations previously awarded capital grant funding by the Wolfson Foundation can apply for funding for refurbishment, maintenance works and equipment that will improve the environmental and financial sustainability of their buildings. This could include installing solar panels, heat pumps, green roofs, energy-efficient glazing, boilers or LED lighting. Match funding is required for projects costing more than £50,000.
Applications to the first round of the Sustainability Fund will open on the 30th March 2022 and close at 5pm on the 25th April 2022.
