GBC Trustees are pleased to announce the Small Grants Scheme, offering support for projects directly or indirectly benefiting any Birds of Conservation Concern in Wales which can be found in East Glamorgan. Click the highlighted link for an informative document.

Grants of up to £250 can be applied for by GBC members and non-members, using the application form to be found here [displays a downloadable pdf info sheet and application form]. Projects delivered in partnership and shown to be sustainable are especially welcome.

The three areas the Small Grant Scheme is intended to support are:

• engaging, enthusing and inspiring local people on understanding, enjoying and conserving birds
• identifying, recording and monitoring birds and their habitats e.g. through surveying
• habitat management to benefit birds.

The next application deadline for the scheme is August 31st 2024 then six-monthly thereafter.

Please allow 21 days between submitting your bid and starting your project activity, be aware that GBC Trustees’ decision on any application is final and that grants are paid retrospectively 

If you would like to discuss your project before completing or submitting your application form, please contact our Treasurer [treasurer@glamorganbirds.org.uk].

We look forward to hearing from you.
