The Fund aims to support charities and causes along our route. It provides vital funding to small and medium sized projects that deliver a positive impact to issues that are important to us.
There are three priorities the fund supports:
-
Better for People
-
Better for Places
-
Better for Planet
For further details on these areas, please click here.
Those applying need to be located within 15 miles of the LNER route and the maximum amount that can be applied for is £10,000.
Applications for the latest funding round can be submitted up until 23:59 on Monday 2 September 2024. We’d love to see as many applications as possible from right along the LNER route.
Further details about how to apply can be found here.
More than 130 projects have received funding from our CCIF over the past five years and you can find out more about the fund – and some of the charities, organisations and communities that have benefited – here.
We’d be delighted if you would share this information with any charities and/or organisations in your community that you feel would benefit from applying.
If you have any questions at all, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
