Funding to encourage greater participation in sport and physical activity across the country.
To commemorate the Coronation in 2023, Sport England has widened its Small Grants focus to include the following areas, which are of personal interest to His Majesty the King:
- Projects which focus on sustainability while reducing the impact on the environment, such as purchasing locally made equipment to extend capacity in a club or using local community assets to minimise travel.
- Projects which focus on developing skills in young people. This could include supporting them through coaching qualifications or relevant sports administration courses or trying new sessions to bring new participants into the club.
In general, the aim of the fund is to bring communities together and provide sport and physical activities for people who may be less physically active.
Applications are accepted from voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations, schools operating for wider community benefit and local authority bodies.
The fund offers grants of £300 to £15,000 to projects across England. These can be spent on a variety of costs relating to project implementation and delivery including coaching, equipment and minor facility alterations.
The deadline to apply is 30 June 2023.
