Nature Recovery
The projects we fund in the Nature Recovery category all make a huge difference to their communities - whether they involve creating a new wetland area to help overwintering birds, establishing a grazing regime, or helping to preserve an ancient woodland, we are proud of all our projects.

Community Buildings
The projects we fund under the Community Buildings theme focus on the buildings at the heart of communities - whether that be community centres or church halls, providing the opportunity for increased community involvement. Projects can include building refurbishment and internal works to kitchens, toilets, roofs, flooring, window, doors and heating systems. The difference made to a community following completion of such a project can be huge!

Recreation
The projects we fund under the Recreation theme are wide ranging, but all make a difference to their communities. They can be projects to create a brand new playground in a village, improve a local skate park, create a green space for use by the whole community or refurbish the communal facilities (such as kitchen or toilets) at a sporting venue which has wider community use beyond that of club members.

Cultural Facilities
The projects we fund under the Cultural Facilities theme focus on improving recreation, interest and education. Whether that be within a theatre, gallery, museum, concert hall, arts or heritage centre, these facilities promote inclusivity and inspire learning through creative participation. Attracting day visitors and tourists, users should be able to enjoy, benefit and engage with collections, exhibits or performances. The difference made to funded cultural facilities can be huge!

Partnership Projects
At Biffa Award we work with a variety of fantastic organisations that are looking to significantly improve a built or natural environment which is of regional or national significance through our Partnership Grants Scheme.
Projects are wide and varied and have included creating 200 hectares of new pollinator habitat, remembering the sacrifice made by 57,861 people who lost their lives and over a million others who served at Bomber Command during the Second World War, creating new and exciting exhibitions recognising some of our lesser known historical figures, enabling the purchase of nationally important nature reserves for rare wildlife species, and the development of a 'one of a kind' laboratory experience to inspire the next generation of scientists.
