What is NatureBid?
NatureBid is a simple online tool on which you can bid for funding to deliver a selection of measures on your farm that aim to slow the flow of water across the Wortley Catchment and reduce the impact of flood events downstream.
It will allow you to select locations on your land in which you wish to implement these measures, and allow you to bid an amount you could provide them for. The most competitive bids will receive funding from the West Yorkshire Combine Authority
