I don't subscribe to Farmers Weekly, but I get their emails.  I saw this:

Funding available for 'shovel ready' biodiversity projects[/color]  The impact of COVID-19 on communities in the Midlands has led Severn Trent to release a one-off, funding pot of 250,000 pounds sterling [the pound sign wouldn't take in cut & paste] to support farmers wanting to improve biodiversity in the region, no matter how ambitious their ideas. Anyone in the Severn Trent region can apply for funding, so long as their project is over 0.5ha or 0.5km and can be completed by 31 March 2021. To apply for funding, please email ecologymatters@severntrent.co.uk to express your interest as soon as possible. Further information about Severn Trent's biodiversity work and funding can be found here.
