Access to Nature

 

Access to Nature is a £25 million grant scheme to encourage more people, from all backgrounds, to understand, access and enjoy the outdoors.  Access to Nature is funded by the Big Lottery Fund's Changing Spaces programme and Natural England.
Access to Nature will fund projects in communities across England , and is about the natural environment and green spaces  including projects in urban areas such as London . The priority will be to fund projects that make a lasting change to communities in areas of high social, economic and/or environmental deprivation.
The Access to Nature website (www.naturalengland.org.uk/accesstonature) includes more detailed guidance about the scheme as well as access to the online application forms.
Applications will be accepted from not-for-profit organisations including registered charities, voluntary and community sector organisations, local authorities and other public sector bodies.  To qualify for funding organisations must show evidence of partnership working and how they intend to involve the people they are trying to reach in developing, making decisions about and implementing the project.
Access to Nature will normally make grants of between £50,000 and £500,000.
The Access to Nature Grant Scheme is now open for applications and grants will be made during 2008, 2009 and 2010.
Application forms can be completed online www.naturalengland.org.uk/accesstonature or contact Joanna Watson (Access to Nature Regional Adviser, London ), on 020 7932 2242 or
