Peak District Community Nature Fund

Grants of £500 to £5,000 from the Peak District National Park Foundation's Community Nature Fund for projects that create, improve or expand spaces for nature inside the Peak District National Park, such as wildflower meadows, hedgerow or tree planting, ponds, and bird or bat boxes. Funding covers the direct costs of delivery, including tools, equipment, materials and contractors where justified, but not running costs. Parish councils, schools, charities, CIOs, CICs, community groups and not for profit landowners can apply, with landowner permission where needed. Sites already protected for nature, such as SSSIs and nature reserves, are not eligible. Applications go by email, and decisions come by 26 February 2027. Applications close on 29 January 2027.
