Summary

The Local Schools Nature Grants Scheme is funded through the Postcode Local Trust and allows schools in England, Scotland & Wales to apply for an outdoor learning grant. The scheme is looking for schools whose learners are aged 5+ and are passionate about making environmental improvements for the benefit of their pupils, staff and the community and who will make great use of the equipment and training supplied by this programme.

You will receive:

• £500 worth of outdoor equipment chosen from a catalogue of over 100 items, including raised bed planters, loose parts kits, waterproof clothing, gardening kits, log seats, ground cover kits, and more;
• A free outdoor learning training session on your chosen theme
• Access to expert webinars with advice, suggestions, and inspiration for taking your grant even further; and
• Exclusive discounts and benefits reserved for LtL members.

They offer unsuccessful applicants access to webinars covering suggestions for improving their applications, along with tips and tricks for developing their outdoor learning provision.

The project is funded by Postcode Local Trust, which receives funding from players of People’s Postcode Lottery.
