Merrell Fund

What is the Merrell fund

The Merrell Fund has been created with one purpose - to share the power of the outdoors with everyone. Our aim is to provide funding for charities and non-profit organisation that have projects and initiatives that make the trail more inclusive and/or protect the trail environment. We mainly want to engage and actively encourage those who may find it difficult to get outside into nature or for those who want to protect and preserve green spaces, so the next generation can enjoy the outdoors as much as we do and beyond!
