Our funding priorities

Our grants focus on projects that get more people and communities actively involved in and caring for Scotland's nature and landscapes.  We're looking to fund a variety of projects that help us to deliver key outcomes for people and nature. Our funding priorities for each outcome are:

• outdoor recreation, volunteering and outdoor learning
• action to improve, protect and manage habitats, species and landscapes
• citizen science and biological recording

Improved management of nature and landscapes

We want to:
