Zero Waste Grants

Do you have a great idea that could reduce waste?

Tasman District Council’s Zero Waste Grants may be able to help you put it into practice.

Zero Waste Grants are available to all schools, early childhood education centres, businesses and community groups in the Tasman District to help promote waste reduction ideas and projects, and/or educate others about the importance of reducing waste. Funding is available to help you set up projects that reduce the amount of waste generated.

The Zero Waste Grant fund is a contestable fund.

Please note grants are not available for schools, early childhood education centres, businesses and community groups working in the Nelson area.
