The Society sponsors fieldwork focused on neglected habitats or species. Grants are intended to cover expenses (fuel and B&B) while in the area but will not exceed £750, so rather than claiming for long distance travel it may be more appropriate to apply for funding to extend your stay for a few days if you will already be in the area. Applications should be accompanied by an outline of the project, including its aims and objectives, approach and expected costs. The grant will only be paid on receipt of a satisfactory report within a year of being awarded the grant. Recipients will be expected to summarize their findings and submit them to The Bulletin .
