Motability Foundation - Community Transport Grants

Details

Aims to help charities and organisations to make an immediate impact for disabled people, by awarding funding to develop, expand and improve community transport options. Priorities are:

  • Funding support for staff or volunteer training and costs.
  • Funding to increase the number of vehicles available in the community to help organisations support disabled people.
  • Funding local, regional, or national initiatives to increase awareness of community transport and influence its inclusion in transport strategy and policy.
  • Funding to schemes, programmes and initiatives that already exist, and who provide best practice solutions, but need further support to remain operational or scale up the service they can provide to help more disabled people.

Grants can cover continuation funding for work which currently exists within the themes including essential costs such as staff salaries, new innovative projects, capital costs towards equipment.

Premium information is available exclusively to SCVO members and supporters
