Transport Grants

The Robertson Trust's Transport Grants are designed for registered charities working in Scotland with an annual income of £30,000 to £2 million that support people experiencing or at high risk of experiencing poverty and trauma. The grants provide funding of between £5,000 and £20,000 per year, for 1-3 years, to contribute towards the costs of transport to support their work. Organizations can apply on a rolling basis with no set closing date. The grants support work addressing one of four funding themes: Financial Security, Education Pathways, Work Pathways, and Nurturing Relationships, or work focused on removing transport barriers for people and places with higher rates or risks of experiencing poverty and trauma. Charities already receiving Small or Large Grants from The Robertson Trust can still apply for a separate Transport Grant, though existing funding will be taken into account. To be eligible, applicants need at least three unconnected Trustees, recent independently examined or audited annual accounts, a bank account in the charity's name with two unconnected signatories, and a safeguarding policy if working with young or vulnerable people.
