Ramblers Path Accessibility Fund
Closing Date: 14/03/2026
Grants are available for groups to make improvements on public rights of way in England and Wales.
The funding for the 2026 round is for projects that seek to remove barriers and open up paths for more people in England, Scotland, and Wales. This includes improving access for those people with reduced mobility, who may struggle to climb over stiles.
There is particular interest in:
- Projects that open up more paths for wheeled users, including those using aids like walkers, electric rollators, mobility scooters, and trampers. Projects to remove barriers will also make paths more family-friendly, to provide ease of access for pushchairs and buggies.
- Innovative projects which replace stiles or barriers, such as chicanes or restrictive narrow kissing gates, with gaps or wider pedestrian gates.
- Accessibility improvement projects in places where people already face greater barriers to enjoying the great outdoors, including places where less well-off communities live.
The Ramblers also continue to welcome accessible improvements in popular walking places that are well served by public transport.
