Finding funding

There are many sources of funding available to education settings for biodiversity improvements and outdoor learning equipment. Below is a list of some of the charity, corporate and government schemes with relevant funding opportunities at a national level that we'll add to over time. This is guide and not a comprehensive list.

Where possible, we've contacted providers to confirm that the information listed is up to date. However, we're not responsible for the accuracy of the information, suitability of the funding or whether the funding is still available. We can't support applications or hold responsibility for the outcome of applications. 

If you know of relevant national funding sources not listed below, contact us with information on eligibility, criteria, amount and an up-to-date web link and we'll add it to the list.
