Projects for Nature

Businesses working together for Nature

Why businesses should get involved

Projects for Nature provides businesses with a unique opportunity to connect with high-quality nature projects across England.

By supporting projects through the Projects for Nature platform, businesses can demonstrate their contribution to environmental causes that align with their strategy and nature priorities.

With Projects for Nature, you can be confident that you are supporting projects that will contribute to restoring nature across England and help to halt and reverse biodiversity loss by 2030.

This is the first exciting phase of Projects for Nature. And you can be a critical part of it. We are currently assessing demand for the platform through a pilot, so we cannot guarantee your involvement at this stage, but the expressions of interest will help us to understand the level of demand for our next phase.
