Sport England's new Movement Fund set to revolutionise funding applications!

Sport England has transformed their funding application process to make it easier for sports clubs and other organisations who help people to take part in physical activity apply for money.

The new Movement Fund, which has launched recently, simplifies funding applications and will help those with the greatest need secure investment to support people to live active, healthy, lives.

The fund, which is worth £160 million over the next four years, replaces the existing Small Grants Programme and Active Together fund, and will offer crowdfunding pledges, grants and resources to provide physical activity opportunities that can help tackle long-lasting inequalities.

Sport England's latest Active Lives figures show, there's still a significant activity gap between people based on where they live, how affluent they are, their sex, ethnic background or whether they have a disability or long-term health condition. The Movement Fund aims to help close these gaps and will especially welcome applications that focus on doing so.
