Latest Road Safety Trust funding window opens

The Road Safety Trust has announced that its Spring 2024 Small Grants round will open on 21 March – with a webinar to support potential applicants taking place on 25 March. The Road Safety Trust is an independent grant-giving trust supporting projects and research that make UK roads safer for all road users.

The main aim of the Spring 2024 Small Grants round is to improve road safety at a local level. This will be achieved by funding pilots or trials, expansions of successful trials across a new area, and/or the evaluation of road safety interventions.

The round closes on 24 April. Applications of between £10,000 and £50,000 are welcomed from local authorities, police forces, fire and rescue services, registered charities, not-for-profit social enterprises, and community interest companies. Universities can also apply in partnership with another organisation.

All projects should have other sources of funding. Projects must also include plans for monitoring and evaluation and an element of partnership and collaboration. The maximum project length under this grant programme is 24 months.
