The West Yorkshire Combined Authority’s CityConnect project is inviting not-for-profit organisations to bid for grants of up to £5,000 to support people in their community to make more everyday journeys by bike and on foot.

We are encouraging groups to apply to deliver projects which address the specific issues within their local community. The project may use walking and cycling to improve an individual’s wellbeing, to support them in accessing employment and training, to address physical and mental health problems or achieve one of the many other benefits cycling and walking can bring.

The application guidance and form can be found here

You will also find examples of type of projects that could be funded.

If you have an idea and would like to discuss it before completing an application please contact cityconnect@westyorks-ca.gov.uk and one of the team will get in touch.

We look forward to hearing from you!
