Below are links to different funding organisations that offer support to Community Recyclers. Each has different funding criteria and variety of amounts available to distribute.

We would recommend visiting their websites, or emailing them where relevant. Always contact organisations to check that your project would be considered under their scheme before writing an application.  Also consider timing your submission to meet the earliest review of applications.
