Applications are now open for this round of the Grow Back Greener Fund. The deadline for applications is 5pm on Monday 26 September 2022.

The 2022 Grow Back Greener Fund will support London’s communities to plant trees to provide shade, create and enhance green space and increase climate resilience.

The fund will offer grants under two themes: green spaces and waterways and tree planting, prioritising projects in areas of the city with low tree canopy cover, where Londoners live further than a 10-minute walk from green space and at high climate risk.

Grants of between £10,000 – £50,000 are available for both themes. However, for projects under the green spaces and waterways theme that will create new green spaces, grants of up to £75,000 are available. This is to reflect the higher costs of some of these types of projects.

Applications are open to:
