Aims/priorities: This fund aims to support and promote grassroots sport within local communities by supporting people and projects that run sports activities that positively impact the local community and would tangibly benefit from funding.
Individuals may nominate a sports club or organisation to receive a cash grant to continue delivering sports activities.

- Community groups and other informal groups.

- Social enterprises.
- Community amateur sports clubs (CASCs).
- Community interest companies (CICs).

Nominations are restricted to one per person.
Grant amount: Up to £4,000 are available.
