Green Roots Fund

The Green Roots Fund is a funding programme that supports projects to create and improve green and blue infrastructure in London. It aims to help nature thrive in the city by giving London communities active ways to transform their local spaces. The fund focuses on making the environment better for all Londoners while addressing issues such as inequality, biodiversity loss and climate resilience. Over £12m of funding is available over three years through five funding rounds between 2025 and 2027. The fund supports two main types of work: implementation work, which focuses on activities that improve physical spaces through creation, improvement and restoration of green spaces, waterways, wetlands or habitats, rewilding, tree planting, species reintroduction, and climate adaptation measures; and enabling work, which focuses on supporting activities like community science, community activation and outreach, feasibility studies, baseline surveys, and design work. The programme seeks to enhance blue and green spaces in London and include and involve Londoners in these spaces, ensuring access to green and blue infrastructure and its benefits for all Londoners.
