The GM Green Spaces Fund provides grants between £2,000 – £40,000 to community groups across Greater Manchester who want to increase the amount of accessible, nature-rich green space where people need it most.
Launched by Andy Burnham in 2022, the fund has invested over £4 million and enabled 122 community groups to develop projects across the city region, including orchards, green alleyways, allotments and community gardens.
So far, over 28,000m2 of new green space has been created and nearly 400,000m2 of existing green space has been improved.
The Green Spaces Fund is now open!
The 2026 round of the Green Spaces Fund is now open for applications, and will close on 3rd August 2026 at noon.
