Third sector groups and organisations can apply for grants of £10,000 – £25,000 for 12 month outdoor nature projects which support environmental action, nature recovery, and climate-focused community activity.

The funding is available through The Wildlife Trust’s Green Community Grants Programme. Applicants must have been in operation for at least 12 months, and their aims must align with either: contributing to nature recovery and responding to the climate emergency, or improving nature-rich spaces and access to them. Funding can also support related sustainable activities such as recycling, litter picking, beach cleans and sustainable transport.

Priority will be given to smaller organisations, groups in highly deprived communities, those supporting marginalised groups, and those focused on habitat or species restoration.

The next deadline for applications is Wednesday 15 July 2026.
