Grow Wild is awarding funding of £1,000 to £4,000 to community groups that want to bring people together to transform a communal space by sowing and growing UK native plants.
Grow Wild are looking to fund at least 60 groups in 2016 across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. There’s a lot of support available from the team during the three month application window in autumn 2015.
• The groups that are awarded funding will be notified in February 2016 ready to start their project in March and finish by October 2016. Each group shares their journey online through a dedicated profile page and social and press media. Grow Wild helps at every stage to publicise the groups and their projects.
• What’s more, funded groups will join the 60 groups that Grow Wild funded in 2014 and the 64 funded in 2015. Alongside their funded ‘flagship sites’ in each UK country and 45 youth-led projects, Grow Wild is building a network of people that bring colour and wildlife to their community’s shared spaces.
