Welcome to the Suffolk Environmental Trust (SET) website.

This site will provide you with an overview of SET, its work, organisation and projects; it will provide information about Grant Funding criteria and the application process. SET’s main objectives are to provide funding for projects in Suffolk which will:

(a) enhance the community / social environment,
(b) create, maintain, or restore natural habitat biodiversity or
(c) maintain, repair or restore buildings or structures which are places of religious worship or of historic or architectural interest and are generally open to the public.

We have limited funds which are usually over subscribed by qualifying applications. Sadly it is not possible to satisfy all requests for funding; some projects will not succeed and others may receive only some of the Grant funding requested. Funding priority will be given to projects which demonstrate the greatest amount of self help, offer benefits to the community at large, cannot obtain all of the necessary funding elsewhere and offer sustainability.

Please spend a few minutes reviewing our website to discover just how we may be able to help with funding and what criteria are necessary for qualifying projects. If you have any queries or would like to discuss the specifics of proposed project, then please contact the Project Officer – details in the Contact section.
