NCS - Woodland Trust - Igniting Innovations

It’s that time of year again when Woodland Trust open their doors to Igniting Innovation applications! With climate change on everyone's doorstep, woods and wildlife are under threat. So they are joining forces with the next generation. With your help, Woodland Trust are finding new ways to boost biodiversity and support woods and wildlife in the fight against climate change

The details

Six individuals or small groups aged 16-25 a chance to develop and deliver projects that will help nature.

Your idea could:

* win project funding up to £6,000

* get 12 months mentorship from experienced conservation experts. 

If your idea is one of 18 to be shortlisted, you'll be invited to a unique training session to build your confidence in standing up for nature and making a good pitch. Six finalists will be selected to pitch their project in person for a chance to make their project a reality. 

On top of helping secure the future of woods and wildlife, your project with us can even kick-start your career in conservation. Get real industry experience and improve your CV or university application all while helping the planet. 

Young people need to be 16-25, and living in Northern Ireland, Scotland, Wales or England to apply with their bright ideas for a project that creates a healthier planet. There’s loads of support for these young people, every step of the way and they don’t need to apply with a fully thought out/ finalised idea!  Woodland Trust encourage applications from all walks of life.

The deadline to apply is 9am Monday 20th Jan, so plenty of time!
