Sport England funding opportunities
Sport England Movement Fund
In April 2024 Sport England launched their Movement Fund, designed to streamline the process of applying for funding from Sport England.
In the years before the Movement Fund, they had a series of other funds, with similar offerings, that have since been closed and condensed into the single Movement Fund - simplifying the process for those seeking support.
The £160 million fund offers crowdfunding pledges, grants - of up to £15,000 - and resources to help projects that encourage active lifestyles and create enriching experiences for local communities.
Sport England especially want to support projects that give opportunities to groups of people who typically haven't had as many chances to be active.
These groups include:
- people living on low incomes
- disabled people or those with long-term health conditions
- older people
- people from culturally diverse communities
- pregnant women and parents with very young children
- girls aged 5-16
- LGBTQ+ people
- people who are in foster care
- people who provide care without pay.
