The Prince of Wales established The Prince's Countryside Fund in July 2010 to support rural communities.

The Fund acts as an emergency disaster relief fund to farmers during unexpected crises such as the Foot and Mouth disaster.

It also supports a number of beneficiaries such as The Farmer Network, which uses its grant to train eight people in hill farming skills.
