The next deadline for projects requiring support through the sported. programme is fast approaching. Sported. provides grants and support to groups that use sport as a tool for development.

The small grants fund provides funding of up to £2,000 for specific projects. Groups need to first apply for membership to sported. before applying for funding.

Groups need to demonstrate the following key objectives:

• Building strong communities
• Removing barriers to participation
• Reducing crime and antisocial behaviour
• Developing young peoples confidence and life skills

• Improving health and well being.
Please note the small grants fund is targeted at small groups with an annual income of less than £50,000.

For further information, and to apply for free membership, visit the sported. website here.

Applications for membership are submitted via the online application.
