Apply for a 2026 Aberdeenshire Grant

In 2026, a number of grants of up to £2,000 each will again be made available by the Jo Walters Trust to people or organisations with a strong link to Aberdeenshire. We are inviting applications for project funding that will provide educational opportunities to people in the outdoors.  

We'd love to hear from you if you have plans that you believe could help more people get outside to learn something! Whether it's for groups, families, individuals or schools, if you think a grant of up to £2,000 would help you achieve it please do apply below. 

From the outward bound expeditions she did at school, to sailing adventures and her time in the OTC doing army training, Jo Walters was the product of plenty of time outdoors, and she believed it had huge benefits, both physical and mental. We know she would want more people to benefit from being in the outdoors, just as she did, and so in her memory, we are offering financial support to help people like you make this happen!

Application Deadline: 31st May 2026
