SPF Marine Biodiversity Fund

Turning the tide to protect our seas

The ScottishPower Foundation Marine Biodiversity Fund will open for applications at the end of March and will finance a multi-year project – for a period of up to three years at a rate of £200K per annum– that contributes to the global objectives of protecting our seas and enhancing marine biodiversity, leaving a positive legacy for future generations.

Proposed projects – which must take place in the UK – should:

• Contribute to the protection and enhancement of the marine/coastal environment, preventing negative impacts and/or enabling the repair and renewal or the marine/coastal environment, including the safeguarding of marine species.
• Share project knowledge and raise awareness of threats to the marine/coastal environment by engaging with the local community and wider society.

Projects delivered by multiple partners will be eligible to apply – provided partners are also based in the UK.

Applicants will be required to complete an online eligibility form at the ScottishPower Foundation website which will be available from the end of March 2021. To access the full set of criteria and to find out how to apply, visit www.scottishpowerfoundation.com.
