Grant News

Grants of between £20 and £500 are available to support local transport schemes in North Somerset which are typically run by local volunteers to provide accessible, efficient and affordable transport for residents with limited mobility.

The Quartet Community Foundation will support two types of community transport scheme:

• community transport groups who provide fully accessible minibuses for a wide range of regular shopping trips, dial-a-ride, group hire and day trips
• car schemes run by volunteer drivers in their own vehicles, which provide a range of local trips but primarily provide access to medical appointments

The North Somerset Community Transport Grant will fund items such as insurance, blue badge application charges, unplanned vehicle maintenance, and any other unexpected expenditure.

Applications that can demonstrate match funding will be looked upon favourably.

Applications can be made at any time.
