THE 2022-2023 COMMUNITY FUND
The Merseyside Recycling and Waste Authority and Veolia Community Fund 2022-2023 launched on Monday 14th February.
- This year’s Fund is investing £165,0000 into projects across the Liverpool City Region. Successful applicants can be awarded up to £30,000 for schemes which operate across all six districts in Merseyside and Halton, and between £1,000 and £8,000 for projects which work solely at one local authority level.
- Bids must tackle one or more of the four priority household waste materials which have been identified by MRWA as key, namely Food, Plastics, Textiles and Furniture. An analysis of waste in the region highlighted that a greater amount of these materials could be re-used or recycled. Projects can also include other household waste materials, for example paper, card, metals.
