The Waitrose and Partners Plan Plastic: The Million Pound Challenge aims to cut plastic pollution in the UK, reducing the amount of unnecessary plastic used and by tackling littered plastic.

Local charities and good causes can apply for a share of over £3 million, raised by the players of People’s Postcode Lottery. Applications are close on 20 February, and can be for any sum between £500 and £20,000.

This bulletin is produced by a partnership of local support and development agencies across Greater Manchester.

The Fund welcomes applications from organisations throughout Greater Manchester with an annual income of less than £50,000.
