How we are funded

'Let Nature Feed Your Senses' is majority funded by 'Access to Nature', a £25 million Lottery-funded grants programme run by Natural England to encourage people from all backgrounds to understand, access and enjoy our natural environment.
'Access to Nature' aims to encourage more people to enjoy the outdoors, particularly those who face social exclusion or those that currently have little or no contact with the natural environment. It will fund projects in urban, rural and coastal communities across England.

Big Lottery Fund

The Big Lottery Fund is the largest distributor of Lottery money to good causes, responsible for giving out half the money raised by the National Lottery for good causes: 14 pence of every pound spent on a Lottery Ticket.
Every year BIG gives out millions of pounds from the National Lottery to good causes. Our money goes to community groups and to projects that improve health, education and the environment. The Big Lottery Funds gives close to £2 million in lottery good cause money every 24 hours, which together with other Lottery distributors means that across the UK most people are within a few miles of a Lottery-funded project.
