Edinburgh Airport Community Fund

The Community Fund was established to ensure local communities benefit from Edinburgh Airport activities. It provides financial support to community groups and charities that are committed to improving the opportunities, facilities and services available to local people.

Objectives of the fund

• Offer meaningful support to local groups, organisations, and charities in communities impacted by Edinburgh Airport’s operations.
• Make a positive difference to those who could benefit from additional funding and potential increased public exposure.
• Fulfil the airport’s aspirational commitment to be a trusted neighbour that provides tangible benefits to its community.
