Evington village green, on the outskirts of Leicester, was hardly ever used. It was litter strewn and unsightly with just two very old sets of swings. The Friends of Evington Village Green was formed after the villagers petitioned for new play facilities. The Friends applied for a Biffaward grant and in January 2007 was awarded £4,800 to contribute towards a multi play unit.

Through the Small Grants Scheme, Avon Wildlife Trust secured a grant to make improvements to Willsbridge Valley Local Nature Reserve (LNR), Bristol.
