The John Muir Award encourages people of all backgrounds to connect with, enjoy and care for wild places.
JULY 2024 UPDATE:
We will be refreshing the John Muir Award, building on its significant success so that it aligns firmly on our charitable purpose, to conserve and protect wild places.
That means we are making changes to how we run the John Muir Award in 2024, and:
- We are currently unable to accept new Proposal Forms for the Award.
- Any Proposal Forms received before 23 March 2024 will be reviewed and registered providing Criteria can be met and the Awards are intended to be completed by 1 September 2024.
- We are no longer able to offer hard copy certificates upon Award completion. Instead, where registered participants have achieved the Award Criteria, we will only provide emailed electronic certificates (PDF format).
