Fund for Schools

2026/2027 Edition is now open!

​

The Better Journeys Project Fund for Schools is a grant initiative that offers schools across the Channel Islands financial assistance and expert guidance to help with cycling infrastructure and solutions.

 

The goal is to make active travel to school more accessible, convenient, and safe for students of all ages.

 

The latest round, the 2026/27 fund, offers a grant of up to £3000 in Guernsey and £1500 in Jersey. (The Guernsey figure is bigger because we have received additional funding there).

 

Applications will close on 10/01/2027. The awards panel will review the entries and advise the successful applicants (and un-successful applicants) by 01/02/2027.
