Rivers & Wetlands Community Days 2023

The application window is open from 6th February 2023, closing on 13th March 2023.

The Rivers & Wetlands Community Days programme is back for 2023, funding practical action by local people to make things better for their rivers and wetlands, now and into the future. Funded by Thames Water and run by a group including also the Angling Trust, Environment Agency, Institute of Fisheries Management and Wild Trout Trust, we’re looking to support projects big and small, from a couple of practical days with volunteers, through to larger-scale improvement work for rivers and wetlands. 

We welcome applications from local, non-Governmental community groups working in the Thames Water catchment, including rivers and wildlife trusts, flood groups, countryside/​catchment partnerships, angling clubs and conservation volunteers. 

In the 2023 round of funding, we seek to support both larger-scale projects, each up to £15K-£20K and small-scale projects up to £5K.
