Smarter Choices, Smarter Places open fund
What is it?
The Smarter Choices, Smarter Places (SCSP) Open Fund aims to encourage people to change their everyday travel behaviours. Grants are available to encourage people to use public transport or other sustainable options such as buses and community car clubs for longer journeys; walking and cycling for short journeys, and home-working to replace daily commutes.
Who can apply?
The Open Fund is available to colleges, universities and students’ associations. The fund aims to help cut Scotland’s carbon emissions and improve our air quality. It will also help reverse the trend towards sedentary lifestyles and will tackle health inequalities.
Grants available are between £5,000 and £100,000 and need to be match funded. You can find out more about the fund and apply, here.
