You can apply for grants for projects that specifically benefit the Wye Valley National Landscape

• The Farming in Protected Landscapes programme – for farmers and land managers in the English part only
• The Sustainable Development Fund (SDF) – for projects in the Welsh part only – and
• The Wye Valley National Landscapes Fund with Herefordshire Community Foundation (HCF)  – for small projects in the whole National Landscape.

For more details on these and how to apply to see the respective pages.
