Details

This fund supports organisations working with communities who experience or are at risk of experiencing poverty and trauma, by providing grants for transport. This could include using the grant to contribute to:

• A range of vehicles such as minibuses, vans and bikes, including electric vehicles (EVs) and e-bikes. We can support the costs of purchasing, leasing or upgrading a vehicle.
• Charge point installation for electric vehicles.
• Running costs such as fuel/energy costs, driver salaries and training. We can also consider funding the costs of hiring a vehicle from a local transport provider.
• Innovative means of transport to support your work, such as drones to deliver essential items to people in remote communities.
