Community Fund

Calling local community groups, schools and charities to help shape the future of our spaces and services along the Transpennine route! Whether it’s creating vibrant green areas, enhancing playgrounds, or improving accessibility, your proposals can make a real difference...

Billions of pounds are being invested to transform train travel across the Pennines, as part of the Transpennine Route Upgrade (TRU). While we work to deliver major railway upgrades across the 70-miles stretch between Manchester, Huddersfield, Leeds and York, we’re committed to investing back into the fantastic communities we’re working in.

That’s why we’ve created the TRU Community Fund. We’re offering local community groups, schools and charities the opportunity to apply for funding to improve local spaces and places across the route.

Stay tuned for updates about our next round of funding and how you can apply…
