Overview

Last year they supported 25 SF&G members with grants of up to £1,500 each. They delivered over 300 summer sessions taking place all over the UK engaging more than 3,000 children and their families, with a huge range of activities taking place including bug hunting, seed planting, orienteering, bush-crafts, and outdoor cooking sessions.

This year they will be distributing £34,000 in grants of up to £1,500 each to support activities that will engage children and young people with nature over the summer break in July and August 2023.

You can apply for up to £1,500 to deliver activities for children and young people aged 5 – 18 that:

Take place in July and/or August 2023
Support them to play, learn and have fun outdoors
Connect them with nature

They are particularly interested in receiving applications that demonstrate how you will reach children and young people who are from disadvantaged backgrounds, and/or who have disabilities.

Your activities can be solely funded by this grant, or take place as part of a larger scheme or initiative.
