Details

The Active Travel Communities Grant is a grant of up to £1,000 for Lanarkshire groups to build and grow active travel communities in their area by demonstrating and promoting the benefits of walking, wheeling and cycling.

Transport is the biggest contributor to greenhouse gas emissions in Scotland today. Travelling more actively can reduce emissions, benefit air quality and improve our health and wellbeing.

This is an ideal grant for Lanarkshire groups who want to encourage active travel activities in their community and who are looking for support to kickstart them.
