Green Roots Fund
Councils are currently securing and seeking funding from the Mayor of London's Green Roots Fund for urban nature recovery projects.
Bromley Council's Executive approved a £363,123 budget increase for the Keston Ponds Project in June 2026, bringing the total to £611,976. This supplementary funding, secured through the Green Roots Fund, supports restoring and enhancing the site, improving water quality and ecological resilience.
Separately, the Wormwood Scrubs Charitable Trust, in partnership with Imperial Health Charity, is seeking up to £150,000 from the Green Roots Fund for a new community garden at Wormwood Scrubs, as of September 2025. This aims to address patient isolation and improve access to green spaces.
The Green Roots Fund is a funding programme from the Mayor of London and the Greater London Authority (GLA) aimed at supporting urban nature recovery and environmental projects across the city. No further discussions or decisions are currently scheduled.
