Green Care Home Grants (West of England)

Description

Capital grants of £1,000-£15,000, covering up to 50% of eligible costs, for care homes across Bath and North East Somerset, Bristol, and South Gloucestershire to buy and install energy-efficiency and low-carbon equipment — insulation, glazing, heat pumps, air conditioning, LED lighting, solar PV, and efficient catering equipment among the eligible categories. Part of the Mayor's Green Energy Fund, with a £250,000 total pot for this round; distinct from the household-facing Warm Homes: Local Grant and Bright Green Homes schemes already tracked elsewhere in this directory, since this targets care home businesses/premises rather than individual residents.

Eligibility summary

• Available in: England.
• Applicant must be a registered business.
• Most relevant to: Healthcare & Social Care, Energy & Utilities.

Notes

Must not start works, sign contracts, or pay any money towards the project before the application is submitted and approved. Applications assessed together as a batch, with awards made in October rather than on a rolling first-come-first-served basis.

Requirement

Care home business or organisation with premises in Bath and North East Somerset, Bristol, or South Gloucestershire (the West of England Combined Authority area — note this excludes North Somerset, which sits outside WECA despite being part of the separate Bristol-led Bright Green Homes household consortium).
