Time is running out for organisations in Lichfield and Burntwood to apply for money for environmental projects.

The Severn Trent Community Fund has been launched as part of a partnership with the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games.

Grants of £5,000, £10,000 and £20,000 are available for non-profit organisations and local charities for projects dealing with green spaces, recycling and water saving.

Severn Trent Community Fund officer Natalie Cunningham said:

> “We hope that the fund will create some fantastic opportunities for communities right across the region to get some nature positive projects up and running.  
>  
> “The best part is that all of our wonderful customers get to vote on their favourite project and have the final decision on which projects are successful.”   
>  
> Natalie Cunningham

The application window for funding will close on 20th February. Interested organisations are asked to book onto one of Severn Trent’s [application workshops](http://www.stwater.co.uk/community-fund-care-for-nature?ref=lichfieldlive.co.uk) to find out more about the fund.

Finalists will be shortlisted by an independent Community Fund panel before public voting will begins April.
