The Resilience Fund keeps focus on the areas that need help the most.
Launched in line with the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration, The Fund helps ensure we are in the best possible position to rise to the environmental challenges ahead.
Now more than ever, wildlife needs a safety net—an initiative ensuring swift and effective action where it’s needed the most.
The Resilience Fund helps:
- Ensure climate resilience on our reserves
Our planet is warming at a faster rate than any other time over the last 10,000 years. Climate change is impacting how we manage our reserves – the Fund helps us adapt to floods, landslips and the threats from non-native species on our reserves across Scotland. - Build connections
From providing career-enhancing skills and experience, to helping different voices be heard across the sector, The Fund helps build connections and grow community resilience the length and breadth of the country. - Promote nature-based solutions
Science has shown that using nature can help combat climate and biodiversity challenges. Nature-based solutions help reduce flooding, capture carbon, protect pollinators and so much more. The Fund provides critical funding for our work in this area, from restoring peatlands and woodlands to helping our Flying Flock of Chevease sheep undertake key conservation grazing.
