For every take-off or landing at Farnborough airport, the community environmental fund receives money to help support local projects.

The airport pays a levy of either £2 or £5 for every take-off or landing at the airport. The amount depends on the type of aircraft.

This money goes into the Farnborough airport community environmental fund, which we manage. For aircraft movements in 2024 we received £62,425 for this fund. There is currently £50,883 available for grants.

We consider applications every month, until all the funding runs out. 

Your organisation can only be awarded one grant in a financial year (April to March). 

Projects the environmental fund has already supported

The type of projects the fund has already supported include pond improvements, canal towpath upgrades, improvements to open spaces, gardening clubs, wildlife projects, new cycle ways, cycle projects and outdoor activities.

The fund is not generally available for buildings. To find out if funding is available for your building, please email our community development team using the contact details below. You should include details of your project and why you need funding.
