Transport Grants

This is one of our four funding offers for registered charities who work to address poverty and trauma in Scotland.

For more details of the kind of work we fund, take a look at Who and what we fund, and for information about the revenue grants we offer, see Our Funds.

Overview

• For registered charities working in Scotland, with an annual income of £30,000 to £2 million, that support people who are experiencing (or are at high risk of experiencing) poverty and trauma.
• Funding of between £5,000 and £20,000 per year, for 1-3 years, to contribute towards the costs of transport to support your work.
• If you are already in receipt of a Small or Large Grant from us, you can still apply for a separate Transport Grant. However, we will take the fact that you already hold funding from us into account. In these cases, we are likely only to award a one-year Transport grant or, if we award you a 3-year grant, we are likely to cap this at a maximum of £20K in total.
• Apply any time – no set closing date.

Guidance highlights – you’ll need:

• At least three unconnected Trustees on your charity’s Board
• Recent independently examined or audited annual accounts
• A safeguarding policy if you’re working with young or vulnerable people.
