Apply now for Chiltern Railways community funding

Applications are now open for the second round of Chiltern Railway’s Community Investment Fund.

Organisations located within 5 miles of a Chiltern Railways-managed station who deliver social, economic or environmental value to local communities are strongly encouraged to apply for grants, which range from £10,000 to £25,000.

Last year, Chiltern Railways successfully funded 12 community-based projects, including those led by the Heart of England and Oxfordshire community rail partnerships. Read about projects made possible by previous rounds of the fund here.

Applications must be submitted by Friday 31 May.

For more information and to submit an application, visit the Chiltern Railways website.
