The LowCVP & Energy Saving Trust Community Challenge is offering cash prizes from £500 to £5,000 for community based projects to introduce lower carbon travel, or low carbon alternatives to travel.

The Community Challenge offers prizes of up to £5,000 for community based projects promoting low carbon vehicles and fuels or smarter, sustainable travel.

How to enter

Entry forms are available on the LowCVP website at www.lowcvp.org.uk/communitychallenge. The deadline for entries is 4th June 2010.

The judges are looking for community groups to submit original ideas that reduce carbon emissions from travel and transport. There are three categories:

• Vehicles and Fuels
• Smarter/Eco-driving 
• Reducing Car Use 

Projects can deliver physical improvements, equipment or technological developments, as well as providing information or setting up a scheme to promote sustainable transport.

We are very excited to launch the Community Challenge, which allow us to recognise and support the achievement of community groups across the UK in helping to accelerate the shift to low carbon vehicles and fuels. Greg Archer, Low CVP Managing Director
