The first stage of the Calf Housing for Health and Welfare grant has now opened for applications. The online eligibility checker involves answering questions about the farming system, whether the project involves upgrading or building new housing, if the project meets the specifications and to what extent the project will go beyond regulatory baselines. 

Once the answers are submitted, an evaluation will determine whether your project is likely to be accepted to receive grant funding. Applicants can then choose whether to submit their eligibility checker answers or review their project. 

The online eligibility checker is open until 30th November. If successful at this stage, applicants will then be invited to submit an ambient environment assessment, more details of which can be found in our previous blog post about the Calf Housing grant.
