15/4/26
The Norfolk Water Fund (NWF) is a financial mechanism established under the Norfolk Water Strategy Programme (NWSP) to support the development, and delivery, of Nature-based Solution (NbS) projects that address water challenges in the region.
With thanks to The Nature Conservancy’s Go Fund, NWF is currently accepting applications from those seeking funding to carry out a feasibility study to help design an effective NbS project or to monitor its impact in a Norfolk catchment.
Feasibility funding can be used to cover landowner engagement, as well as the surveys, permits and designs needed to maximise a project’s potential for water security and bring it to a shovel-ready stage.
In addition, funding is available for monitoring activities, including staff time, equipment and other resources required to track the effectiveness of NbS interventions over time. Applicants should refer to Water Resources East's best practice guidance when designing a monitoring plan.
To apply for funding of up to £15,000, please email nwsp@wre.org.uk to receive the application template.
