Small grants for youth-led gardening projects

Active Derbyshire, Active Notts, Funding, News

The Royal Botanical Gardens, Kew, are offering grants of £500 to young people (aged 16 to 25) to deliver creative projects that celebrate why UK-native plants and/or fungi are so special, through their Grow Wild fund.

Funds granted can be used to pay for anything that will support the project, including equipment, materials, training, resources, or expert help.

Applications can be made by young people who have a supporting organisation, such as a school, university, youth club, or local community group, to help them deliver the project.

There is a free webinar being held on Tuesday 24th February 2026 from 12:30pm to 1:15pm on Microsoft Teams to provide more information about Grow Wild. Click here to register your place.

Projects can start in May but must be completed by the end of October 2026.
