Groups can submit applications for grants of between £7,500 and £75,000 which can be used to cover up to 20% of capital costs associated with renovation and improvement projects.

/by

What is available?

Rewilding Britain is offering grants of up to £15,000 to help remove barriers to rewilding projects across Britain, whether they are at the early planning stage or scaling up a pre-existing project.

The Rewilding Innovation Fund will support rewilding projects on land and at sea, at a scale of more than 40 hectares, that adhere to Rewilding Britain’s rewilding principles, and could potentially unlock further funding or move a project in scale.

Funding can be used to cover costs such as:

  • Business plans and strategies.
  • Community engagement activities or co-design.
  • Feasibility studies.
  • Technological innovations.

Who can apply?

In this round of funding, priority will be given to projects focused on engaging with young people.

How to apply?

There are typically two funding rounds per year. Applicants must first become a member of the Rewilding Network before submitting a full application.

The next deadline for applications is 30 August 2024
