The Environment and Waste Minimisation Fund.

Upper Hutt City Council

Cloth nappies, voucher-based reusable sanitary products, compost bins, wilderness paths, veggie gardens and worm farms - these are just some of the projects we’ve funded in the past through our Environment and Waste Minimisation Fund.

If you’re looking to get a new sustainability initiative off the ground but need more money to do it, why not apply?

Sustainability is a key priority for our council, and we love supporting initiatives like these.
