The deadline for applications is Tuesday 12 November 2024 (may close earlier if demand is high)
Sported has teamed up with Cash4Clubs (Cash4Clubs is funded by Flutter UK and Ireland, part of Flutter Entertainment, the global sports betting, gaming and entertainment provider) to deliver another round of funding in 2024. Unrestricted grants of up to £2000 are available for community organisations working with adults from under-represented communities, delivering sport or physical activity for social purpose.
The 2024 programme is exclusively focused on supporting adult clubs, with the funding being offered to groups that deliver activities to over 18s only, with an emphasis on 18 to 25 year olds. The funding will be unrestricted but with an outcome of increasing participation, meaning clubs are able to decide how best to use the grant to engage more adults from their local communities. Due to the nature of the funder, you cannot apply if your organisation or club runs junior activities.
Applications are welcomed from not-for-profit organisations, including charities, community groups, and traditional sports clubs. To be eligible for funding, applicants must be either registered charities or clubs with a structured governance and constitution. Applicants must also demonstrate that they are using sport for a wider social purpose with a goal to increase participation of adults from under-represented groups. They are particularly interested in submissions from groups working in areas of high deprivation.
