The May – June funding window is open!
The theme is nature connection.
Fresh air and exercise have long been recommended as a way for many to feel better, physically and mentally, but a connection to nature can also have a profound impact on our ability to create positive action for climate change.
Studies show that a sense of psychological connectedness with the natural world has important benefits for global health because nature connection and pro-environmental behaviour are strongly correlated. It is estimated that around 16% of a population can trigger a social tipping point. The more connected people feel to nature, the more likely they are to take action to care for it.
We are looking for grant applications from charities, community groups, and organisations who are working to connect communities to nature through:
Arts and cultural activities
Community gardening
Green gyms
Eco anxiety and mental health
Training a community with green skills
Conservation volunteering
Urban nature programmes
Social prescribing
➡️ Access to nature
Community wildlife surveys
Nature mindfulness
Or perhaps you have a nature connection initiative that we haven’t even considered! If you have a completely new approach to encouraging nature connection, then we are all ears.
The deadline for this funding window is 12 pm on 10th July 2025.
