Other recent projects approved for Young Roots funding include Exploring the Roots of Our Garden, which will give unaccompanied young asylum seekers in Kent a chance to learn about the natural history of The Garden of England, including 10 practical conservation days that will help the young people learn historic and contemporary methods of countryside management and conservation.
