The second round of the Green Recovery Challenge Fund supports nature projects across England with funding worth up to £40m. Grants from the £40m first round of funding were awarded in December 2020. The Green Recovery Challenge Fund is open for applications for grant funding of £50,000 to £250,000. Projects must deliver against at least one of the fund’s three themes:
- Nature conservation and restoration, including ecosystem restoration and species recovery
- Nature-based solutions, particularly for climate change mitigation and adaptation
- Connecting people with nature
