For the first time, the 2024/25 North London Community Fund has been split into two stages. Fourteen groups have already been awarded small grants of up to £5,000 and medium grants of up to £15,000 towards waste prevention activity.
Project inspiration
We want to encourage collaboration between not-for-profit organisations of all shapes and sizes, with national bodies having the opportunity to partner with north London based groups. NLWA will be hosting two Q&A networking webinars to facilitate and support these collaborations.
Projects must either be intervention-based with a behaviour change focus, or aim to reach communities not currently participating in pro-environmental behaviours. They may focus on a small geographical area but be scalable.
Projects must align with the Waste Prevention Plan and not replicate any NLWA campaigns, such as Eat Like a Londoner.
Food-based proposals could, for example, focus on disposal or prevention, while WEEE projects could focus on repair or buying second-hand.
