We were delighted to attend the National Landscapes Association Annual Conference in Shropshire last week 🌳 Our team members Yann Grandemange and Scott Mitchell conducted workshops discussing Principles for National Landscapes to engage with Green Finance opportunities, exploring how #greenfinance can support the vital work of preserving and enhancing some of the UK's most cherished landscapes. We are thrilled to be partnering with the National Landscapes Association to develop a Green Finance strategy aimed at leveraging new funding sources. This collaboration is a key part of our ongoing efforts to catalyse more funding for critical habitat restoration across the UK's Protected Landscapes. Find out more about our partnership ➡ https://lnkd.in/eQXG7zUp We look forward to building on the insights and connections made at the Conference as we continue this important work. #natureprotection #natureinvestment #conservationfinance

'Coetiroedd Bach: Tiny Forests in Wales' "A grant scheme intended to create Tiny Forests, as part of the Welsh Government’s National Forest" I heard about the above during a meeting of the Welsh Housing Decarbonisation Community of Practice this morning and thought it might be of interest to others: "Is this the right scheme for you? *Do you own or manage land in Wales, or have written permission from the landowner to apply to this scheme? *Are you looking to create a Coetir Bach/Tiny Forest that adheres to Earthwatch’s principles? *Can you involve the community with the creation and management of your woodland site? *Do you require a grant of up to £40,000 for one site, or up to £250,000 for multiple sites? If you answered yes to these questions, then Coetiroedd Bach/Tiny Forests in Wales scheme is for you." Closing date for grant applications is 8th May 2024.

Action for nature is already happening on the ground in Sussex but isn't always visible. 🌱 🐝 In recent meetings with #FarmerClusters across Sussex, the Local Nature Recovery Strategy team have heard about interventions taken to improve habitats and support species, at the same time as running a business. That these aren't known more broadly or celebrated is because land managers are busy getting on with it. The purpose of #LocalNatureRecoveryStrategies for Sussex is to identify opportunities for nature's recovery, but to do that, it’s important we know where we're actually starting from. 🎯 If you're a farmer, community group, organisation or land manager use the tool to MapYourActions for nature. Whether they are large or small, in progress, implemented or planned, the Sussex LNRS team want to hear about them!

The UK’s diverse #marine and #coastal #ecosystems play a critical role in underpinning our economy, health and wellbeing, but they are increasingly threatened by growing pressures. #NaturalCapitalMarkets provide a route to unlock much-needed #PrivateFinance to safeguard and restore our vital marine and coastal environments. Today we’ve published a first-of-its-kind roadmap to bring us one step closer to establishing high-integrity marine natural capital markets in the UK, building on existing actions across the country. This Roadmap, funded by The Crown Estate, Blue Marine Foundation, Crown Estate Scotland, Esmée Fairbairn Foundation and University of Portsmouth and developed by Finance Earth and Pollination, was co-designed through a year-long initiative involving more than 200 UK and international stakeholders. It sets out recommendations and key actions for developing high-integrity markets that can support the conservation and restoration of the UK’s vital marine and coastal environments, delivering real, measurable value to people and nature.

It likely comes as no surprise that when an organization, whose sole focus is on bettering the ecosystem we live in, would require an application that allows them to focus on just this. Come see how we designed a sleek application which allows the team at Forests Ontario to distribute trees to local communities. https://bit.ly/3tX1ItD
