Continuation Funding

One donation, twice the impact for grassroots conservation

£1.2 million awarded to 16 outstanding conservationists from our network of Whitley Award winners to scale up proven solutions

From 2 – 9 December, every donation through Big Give’s Christmas Challenge will be matched, doubling its impact.

Thanks to your generosity we have exceeded our Big Give Green Match Fund goal of £200,000!
