Rewilding Innovation Fund

Description

Grants of up to £15,000.

The Rewilding Innovation Fund aims to remove barriers to rewilding across Britain. Whether your site or project is in the early planning stages or looking to try out a new approach, you can apply to this fund. Applications are now open.

From business plans to feasibility studies, community engagement to trialling the latest technology, Rewilding Britain funds works that could potentially unlock further funding for you or move you up the rewilding scale.

Projects have two opportunities to apply for funding through the Rewilding Innovation Fund each year, in the new year and summer.
