The pot varies year to year with aircraft movement levels — £93,647 was awarded in 2024.

Amount

Deadline

Rolling / no fixed deadline

Eligibility summary

  • Available in: England.

Requirement
Group or organisation located within approximately 5km (3 miles) of the centre of Farnborough Airport, with a project delivering community or environmental benefit.
