This grant funds local projects that use Natural Flood Management (NFM). This means working with nature to slow down flood water. Examples include planting trees, building leaky dams, or improving soil. Together, these actions protect our valleys.
We welcome all kinds of nature-based flood ideas. However, the Natural Flood Management Operational Group (NFMOG) have chosen has chosen eight priority actions from the Calderdale Flood Action Plan. If your project tackles one of these eight actions, you will get a higher score on Section 4 of your application form. See the list of these actions.
To help you plan, the NFMOG Funding Sub-Group will be reviewing applications across three upcoming cycles. Please email us your application by midnight on these dates:
Apply by 29th June — for the 6th July meeting.
Apply by 24th August — for the 7th September meeting.
Apply by 19th October — for the 2nd November meeting.
Please note: All successful projects must be finished, and all funding claims sent in, by 1st March 2027.
