National Lottery Community Fund - Climate Action Fund

The Climate Action Fund will support communities to tackle climate change. 

Partnership projects that reach more people by either: 

• linking climate action to the everyday lives and interests of local communities. And inspiring them to take action.
• influencing communities at a regional or national level. Like linking up groups across locations. Or a campaign that inspires change across one country, or the whole UK.

You do not have to be a climate or environment focused organisation to apply

The fund wants to reach people who are new to climate action by funding other types of organisations too. And by using people’s everyday activities as a starting point for climate action.

We're particularly interested in projects that involve people, places and communities experiencing poverty, discrimination and disadvantage.

The minimum you can for is £500,000 and funding from 3 to 5 years is available. 

Applications are being accepted on a rolling basis until at least 17 December 2025
