If you have a compelling vision, innovative idea or a cause that requires funding to support our communities, then we encourage you to submit an application. Our goal is to provide investment to those groups and individuals who can make a meaningful impact along the route.

To apply for funding, please fill out the Chiltern Railways Community Investment Form and submit this to communityfund@chilternrailways.co.uk
