LNER’s aim is to support charities and causes along their route. It provides vital funding to small and medium sized projects that deliver a positive impact to issues that are important to us.
There are three priorities the fund supports: Better for People, Better for Places and Better for Planet
Better for People
- Fostering a culture of equality, that champions diversity and inclusivity.
- Creating a culture of positive mental health, bringing people and communities together.
Better for Places
- Creating skilled and inclusive communities along our networks that can thrive.
Better for Planet
- Conserve resources, reduce waste and reuse where possible.
- With a particular focus on biodiversity, sustainable travel, waste reduction and the circular economy
