CrossCountry has announced the launch of a new Customer and Communities Improvement Fund (CCIF) to support community initiatives across its network.

The refreshed grant scheme will see three application windows open throughout the year – with the summer period having opened on Monday 1 July.

A total of £167,000 has been made available throughout the year for community projects that deliver tangible social and environmental benefits.

Jessica Lockwood, environment and sustainability manager at CrossCountry, said: “We’re excited to launch the refreshed Customer and Communities Improvement Fund and can’t wait to see what applications come in from communities across the country.

“We’d be delighted to hear from projects and groups looking to improve the communities served by the CrossCountry network, especially with an emphasis on social value and sustainability – if this sounds like you, please visit our website to apply.”

The summer deadline for applications is Friday 23 August 2024.
