Greggs Foundation - Small Environmental Grants

Grants are available to not-for-profit organisations and schools in Great Britain for projects which make a difference to local areas, with preference given to projects that involve or benefit people who are disadvantaged.

Not-for-profit organisations with a turnover of £300,000 or less and schools in England, Scotland and Wales can apply.
Organisations that are based near Greggs shops will be given priority.
Priority will also be given to projects that benefit disadvantaged people, which could include the following groups:
  • People with disabilities or suffering chronic illness.
  • People living in a disadvantaged area.
  • People living in an area with poor access to the environment.
  • Voluntary carers.
  • Homeless people.
  • Isolated older people.
  • Other identified need.
Funding is available for projects that benefit the local environment.
Grants can cover the purchase of equipment, sessional salary costs, purchase of trees/plants, small capital projects and learning activities.
The Greggs Foundation is also interested in new approaches and innovative ideas as well as sustainable approaches to supporting local environments.
