Share The Joy is a Community Cycling Fund. The partnership initiative from LCC and Lime with support from LOUD Mobility awards grants to projects that help encourage more people to cycle.

If you’re a London-based community group you can submit your application today. Funding is awarded four times a year to cover core costs, project costs, or new equipment. The average grant awarded is £2,500 but exceptional cases and brilliant ideas will receive more, so don’t hold back when applying!

Grants are awarded to groups or ideas that demonstrate potential in one of three categories. Projects that support groups underrepresented in cycling, or that may have difficulty accessing funding from elsewhere, are given additional priority.

1. Health & Wellbeing

For organisations or cycling projects that improve physical and mental wellbeing or tackling health inequalities.

2. Accessibility & Inclusion

For organisations or projects that provide cycling support to groups underrepresented in cycling in London.

3. Skills & Connectivity

For organisations or projects that help people develop skills and access employment opportunities, as well as provide free or discounted access to active travel to enable connectivity.
