Sustrans' ArtRoots fund

This form is for you to express your interest in applying to the ArtRoots fund. We encourage you to read the guidelines for the ArtRoots fund before completing this form. We aim to respond to all submissions within 2 weeks with feedback as to whether we think your project fits our criteria or not. If your project is suitable we will direct you to the full application form where we will ask for more details including budget plan, quotes and landowner permissions - please allow plenty of time to obtain these. If you have any questions then you can contact us at artroots@sustrans.org.uk or phone 07599658052


Please note: ArtRoots is now closed for applications until it reopens in Spring 2025. You can still submit an Expression of Interest but we will not be responding to these until the fund reopens.
