Are you a natural creative when it comes to engaging people with environmental issues? And do you need funding to put your cool green project idea into action?

The 2014 Timberland Grant, running for the 5^th time in partnership with Project Dirt, is now open for applications for five grants at £2,000. Projects need to demonstrate creativity in tackling an environmental problem, have clear social benefits and be grassroots and engaging!

Previous winners have done wonderful things such as revolutionising the use of our pavements and bus stops, establishing community repair events for electronics and raising awareness about biodiversity decline through design and installations.

If you feel like you fit into this row of inspirational grantees, we’d love to hear from you! Don’t leave it too late, applications close on midnight of 26 October 2014. Everything else you need to know, as well as the application form, can be found on www.projectdirt.com/timberlandgrant
