Coastal Foundation Fund Accepting Applications for 2026 Funding Round

Sea Changers is offering grants of up to £2500 for community groups and other not-for-profit organisations to help prevent negative impacts on UK coastal and marine environments and species by reducing marine litter through the provision of well-located coastal water fountains that will significantly reduce the use of non-reusable plastic drinks bottles.

The Coastal Fountain Fund will support groups to cover the cost of purchasing a water fountain unit for installation in a busy or environmentally important coastal location. Priority will be given to new applicants who have not previously received funding.

Funding is only for the cost of purchasing a water fountain. Installation or maintenance costs will not be considered.

The deadline for applications is 28 February 2026. For more information, please visit Coastal Fountain Fund 2026 | Sea-Changers
