Need funding to support your environmental work?
Organisations can apply for up to $15,000 through the Large Grant by 15 March.
Your community project needs to support at least one of our focuses:
- Improve food resilience, security, and sovereignty
- Protect biodiversity and freshwater quality
- Reduce waste and support a circular economy
- Take action on climate change
Projects must be within the Manawatū River catchment — from the source to the sea, including Tararua, Palmerston North, Manawatū, and Horowhenua.
ENM's latest Annual Report
New Constitution
Under the Incorporated Societies Act 2022 (The Act), ENM is required to re-register as an incorporated society by April 2026 if it doesn’t want to cease to exist.
Throughout 2025, ENM has been developing a new constitution to meet the requirements of The Act, and we're grateful for our member's input throughout this process - both via emails feedback and through discussions at two Membership Hui.
ENM acknowledges Lisa Christensen for her thoughtful mahi to incorporated Te Reo Māori headings and phrases throughout the constitution. The language that is included offers a gentle but significant wero to operate under the phrases that begin each section.
ENM also acknowledges Alana Nuku from Te Ao Turoa and Todd Taiepa from Palmerston North City Council for their valuable recommendations for the Te Reo Māori content.
