Heading 1

The Greater Manchester Environment Fund (GMEF) is the UK’s first regional environmental impact fund benefitting the region socially, environmentally, and financially. We are a central funding source for environmental projects that are working to benefit both nature and people. GMEF can ensure there is funding available for projects working to resolve environmental and natural health issues in the diverse communities around Greater Manchester through funding from donors, enforcement undertakings, and taxes and levies such as landfill tax and carrier bag charges. We have already supported over 100 projects across Greater Manchester, ranging from encouraging recycling and reuse to improving green space across the region and creating and restoring habitats.
