Our approach to environmental sustainability

We offer practical and financial support to help museums and galleries explore issues such as environmental sustainability and climate change. For example, in 2023 we led a UK-wide project, The Wild Escape, bringing together 530 museums to engage thousands of children with the subject of biodiversity loss. And in 2025 we have given funding to 43 museums across the UK to help them run activities and events for their local communities inspired by THE HERDS, a global climate action project. [...] # Art Fund’s approach to environmental sustainability Art Fund's 2022-26 strategy includes a commitment to reducing our environmental impact both now and in the future. We are in the early stages of this journey. We have set up an internal working group, the Green Taskforce, to monitor and drive the ongoing implementation and impact of our action plan. Here’s an overview of what we’re doing to reduce our environmental impact and embed sustainability into our work. ### How we fund [...] We recognise that there is much work to do and we intend to hold ourselves accountable. We’ll update this statement over time as we work together with our staff and partners to bring about positive change. © Art Fund 2025. “Art Fund” is the operating name of the National Art Collections Fund, a charity registered in England and Wales (209174) and Scotland (SC038331)
