A successful fund that supports coastal communities with installing water fountains to reduce plastic waste has once again opened for applications.

The purpose of the Sea-Changers Coastal Fountain Fund is to reduce the impact of single-use plastic water bottles on coastal habitats by funding communities to purchase water drinking fountains and install them for use by the public in busy or environmentally important areas. 

So far more than 20 fountains have been installed around the UK with more coming soon. Grants of up to £2,500 are available, per applicant, towards the cost of a fountain.​

Sea-Changers welcome applications from all types of not-for-profit organisations who have identified a need and are well-placed to get the stakeholder involvement needed to make the project a success. 

The closing date for applications is 28th February 2023. Apply now via the Sea-Changers website!
