Biffa Award currently provides funding for projects between £10,000 – £75,000.
The Main Grant scheme Recreation and Community Building project theme requires an active Biffa operation to be within 5 miles of the project site OR an active Biffa Landfill site within 10 miles. In addition your project must be within 10 miles of any registered landfill site. However, if you’re applying under the Main Grants Rebuilding Biodiversity theme, the radius of the Biffa operation is extended to within 15 miles.
The Biffa Award Board meets three times annually. At each meeting the Board considers applications from two of the three project themes, with each theme being considered twice annually, as follows:
June 2017 – Recreation and Community Buildings FULL APPLICATION DEADLINE 20/4/17
October 2017 – Community Buildings and Rebuilding Biodiversity FULL APPLICATION DEADLINE 16/8/17
