Applications can be made at any time to this programme that will provide grants of between £300 and £1,000 to local sports clubs, voluntary and community organisations, community councils and schools for activities that encourage more people to take part in sport or physical activity; to increase the numbers of those volunteering in sport or physical activity; and to bring communities together through sport and volunteering.
The Big Lottery Fund (BIG) will also partly fund costs of a larger project, however, the total project costs must not exceed £2,000, with BIG's contribution being a maximum of £1,000. Priority will be given to applications that focus on low participation groups, e.g.
-
women and girls
-
people who are disabled
-
people over 50 years of age
-
people under 25 years of age
-
people from black and minority ethnic communities.
