The BSBI runs a small grants scheme supporting work on the British Flora. The maximum award is 1000, but typical awards are nearer 500.

Applications from a full spectrum of people are encouraged including students, amateur botanists, and academics.

The closing date for the next round of applications is 6th February 2010.

Further details of the scheme and an application form are available from the BSBI web-pages:
