Wildlife-Rich Habitat Fund

The Wildlife-Rich Habitat Fund is a Defra grant programme for people living or working within National Parks and National Landscapes. Projects must either:

• Create a new wildlife-rich habitat (examples include heathland, ponds, traditional orchards, woodland, grassland and coastal habitats)
• Restore a specific type of degraded habitat

The guidance below sets out the eligible types of habitats for both. The project cannot be within one of the following protected sites: SSSI, SAC, SPA or MCZ, and must be within, or of benefit to, Norfolk Coast National Landscape.

Please note, this is a competitive programme, therefore not all grant applications will be awarded.
