Since 2021, the Rewilding Innovation Fund has funded 35 initiatives across Britain’s land and sea. From community-driven to technology-focused projects, these awards have removed the barriers to rewilding for many.

Rewilding Britain believe that innovation is key to rewilding, to remove barriers to rewilding across Britain to scale up existing projects to the landscape-scale. The 11 projects funded in the latest round of the Rewilding Innovation Fund are either at the start of their journey or ready to go one step wilder.

Full details on the projects awarded money in this round on the Rewilding Britain Innovation Fund page.
