Neighbourhood Ecosystem Fund
Created: 02/11/2026
The Neighbourhood Ecosystem Fund, which supports community groups in Scotland to develop local ecosystem restoration projects, is now accepting applications on a rolling basis.
This Fund focuses on the development stages of undertaking ecosystem restoration (the design, planning and preparation for ecosystem restoration).
You can apply for up to £13,500 to pay for the activities of your project. If your project is successful, you will also receive up to £1,500 of professional fundraising time to help you apply for funding to take your project to the next stage.
You can apply to the Neighbourhood Ecosystem Fund at any time through Inspiring Scotland's simple two-stage application process. This approach helps them focus on projects that are a strong fit, while reducing the time and effort needed to complete a full application.
