Greener Futures

Greener Futures is our £1 million+ investment programme focused on communities and the climate emergency.   

This four-year programme, running until 2025, aims to improve people’s lives by

  • Supporting training and jobs in the green economy
  • Enabling communities to take climate action 
  • Improving disadvantaged young people's access nature  

Together with our partners, Groundwork, The Westminster FoundationThe London Community Foundation,  Liverpool ONE and the Community Foundation for Merseyside, we will raise money and offer our time to help communities benefit from a greener economy.   

The Greener Futures Fund supports community-led climate action. Since launching the programme in 2021 we have granted over £650,000 to c.40 projects, benefiting over 35,000 people. 

Co-founder of Climate Ed and Greener Futures grant recipient, Ben Cuddon, said: “Climate Ed is thrilled to receive support from Grosvenor’s Greener Futures Fund. Our carbon literacy programme has been hugely enjoyed by children across south London and we are very excited to have the chance to expand our services to new areas and work with new schools and students.” 

Graham Duxbury, Chief Executive, Groundwork UK: “We’ve been blown away by the enthusiasm and creativity of the Grosvenor team in generating funds to support our mission. This has been exemplified by the support Grosvenor have given to our Westminster Wheels cycle repair enterprise, which is now going from strength to strength in partnership with Westminster Council. We look forward to deepening our relationship and extending our activities into other areas to help the communities in which Grosvenor has a stake become more cohesive, sustainable and resilient.”
