Green Community Grants

Closing date:

Provider: [Name of the Organization/Government Body]

Grant Value: Grants of up to £25,000 are available.

Status: Open

Summary: This grant programme offers one-year flexible funding for not-for-profit groups in England, Scotland and Wales with an annual income between £10,000 and £1 million. 

Who can apply? To be eligible for funding, you must have been operating for a minimum of 12 months and your organisation’s main aims and objectives must fit with one of the two funding themes: 

  1. Contributing to nature recovery and responding to the climate emergency
  2. Improving nature-rich spaces and access to them

Whilst your organisational objects or purpose should fit one of these two themes, funding can also be used for a wider range of sustainable activities, including recycling, litter picking, beach cleans or sustainable transport.

What will it fund? Priority will be given to organisations: 

  • that have an income between £10,000 and £250,000
  • that work in communities located in the top 15% of the Index of Multiple Deprivation
  • whose main activities are focused on supporting marginalised groups. This could include, but is not limited to, disabled people, communities experiencing racial inequity, and LGBT+ people
  • whose objects or purposes within its governing document relate to habitat or species restoration/protection

The fund will be open in 2026 for two further application windows: 

  • 24 June to 15 July
  • 30 September to 21 October
