Community Railways Initiative: Finance
- Question
-
To ask His Majesty's Government what investment they have provided to Community Rail Network in this financial year, and what funding they plan to provide in the next three financial years.
- Answer

The Community Rail Network (CRN) is a membership organisation which supports community-based groups and partnerships that connect their community with their railway. The Department provides funding towards the Network. Over £800,000 has been granted to the CRN via core and project funding in this financial year.
Support for wider Community Rail Partnerships is also provided via the Train Operating Companies. As we move towards establishing Great British Railways, the Community Rail movement will be integral to helping us deliver our priorities and will continue to deliver for passengers and communities.
