Private Landowners Grant Fund to combat Flytipping!

Zero Waste Scotland is administering funding, to aid private landowners towards interventions that will prevent flytipping on private land. 

The fund aims to support innovative projects that will:

• Prevent flytipping on private land
• Engage local communities
• Facilitate the reporting of flytipping and enforcement of existing penalties
• Have social, environmental, and economic benefits

Zero Waste Scotland will shortly be posting a set of case studies showcasing last year’s projects (below) as well as Keep Britian Tidy’s flytipping grant fund case studies, for ideas and inspiration.

The funding is for private landowners to prevent incidents of flytipping on their lands and applicants must meet the following eligibility criteria:

• Maximum grant of £20,000
• Project location must be connected to an area of private land in Scotland
• Proposed locations must have been flytipped within the last 12 months
• Landowner based in the UK 

Full details on eligibility criteria can be found in the fund  guidance
