SOUTH DOWNS
NATIONAL PARK
New funding for South Downs
communities’ sustainable
transport projects
The Sustainable Transport Solutions Fund
(STSF) is a small grants scheme fund
administered by the South Downs National
Park Authority which offers grants from
between £250 to £15,000 and up to 75 per
cent of a project. To be eligible projects must
demonstrate an effective plan that
encourages long-term changes in the way
people travel and gets more people
travelling by foot, bike and public transport to
and within the National Park.
Examples of the kinds of projects the fund
can support include:
Free advice to woodland owners
could boost local economy
People who own woods across the South
Downs National Park are being offered free
advice on how to manage their land to
support wildlife and the local economy. The
South Downs Forestry Partnership are also
offering networking opportunities for
woodland owners to learn from the experts.
For more information on this project or
woodland management advice, contact the
