SOUTH WEST REGIONAL FUNDING FOR COMMUNITIES TO TAKE ACTION ON THE ENVIRONMENT AND NATURE

The National Lottery Community Fund’s South West regional team invites you to an online event exploring our current funding opportunities that support community led environment and nature action.
The session will cover:

• Our Environment Mission – one of the four missions in our Strategy: It Starts with Community.
• Funding opportunities – from small grants (£300–£20,000) to larger grants of £20,001+ lasting up to five years.
• Examples of funded projects – showcasing the types of initiatives we support.
• Live Q&A with our funding team.
• Optional breakout rooms (subject to numbers) for further discussion with Fund staff.

Voluntary and community sector organisations from the South West Region, as well as statutory bodies, are welcome to sign up by 28 April, provided your idea aligns with at least one of our priorities:

• Helping people connect with and care for nature in their local area
• Making a positive difference to the environment
• Empowering people to engage with climate issues and adapt to climate impacts
• Supporting community activities that reduce carbon emissions or create space for wildlife
• Increasing access to nature by improving the amount and quality of natural spaces so people and wildlife can thrive
