Are you aged 16–25 and live in the UK? Apply for a £500 Grow Wild grant to bring your nature project to life this summer!

We are calling on young individuals to come up with a project idea to champion UK native plants and/or fungi.  

Whether you're into sowing or sewing, photography or video making, science or cooking... if you've got an idea, we want to hear from you. 

What You Get

  • A £500 grant for your project. This can be used for anything you might need such as materials, equipment, resources and training to develop your skills.

  • Support, online sessions and resources from Grow Wild.

  • Opportunities to connect with other participants across the UK and see your project featured in a collective portfolio.

  • The chance to complete Kew's Young Environmental Leader Award designed to work alongside your Grow Wild project and recognise your achievements.
