Grants and Funding
Each year the Coast & Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) is proud to open several grants schemes that fund local community projects.
Whether you have a project that works in the arts, media, conservation, learning, heritage, food, health, accessibility, and diversity, to give you but a few examples, we welcome your applications.
