Applications Invited for People’s Trust for Endangered Species UK Mammals Grants
Funding is available to voluntary conservation organisations, scientific researchers, individuals and consortia for work that relates to the conservation of mammals in the UK.
The People’s Trust for Endangered Species (PTES) provides grants in the region of £10,000 to £20,000 to support conservation projects that focus on endangered UK mammal species and their habitats, and that address, in particular, one of the following three key research themes:
- Monitoring mammals
- Habitats for mammals
- Human impacts and mitigation
Work eligible for funding can include scientific research, practical habitat management, reintroduction and monitoring programmes and educational projects, with priority given to those projects that focus on sound research or conservation work that is likely to lead directly to practical conservation outcomes with a lasting benefit to the species and habitat concerned.
Projects that require funds to promote the dissemination/public awareness within local communities and/or to policy makers of conservation strategies based on sound research will also be considered.
The deadline for applications is 31 October 2018.
