The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee Activity Fund aims to use sport and physical activity as a means of bringing a community together and tackling inequalities via awards of between £300 and £10,000 from a pot of £5 million of National Lottery funding.
This fund will make awards, using National Lottery funding, of between £300 and £10,000, from a total pot of up to £5m.
Sport England want to mark and help celebrate the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee year by supporting projects that bring a community together and provide opportunities for people who may be less physically active.
Their priority is to support projects working with people in disadvantaged communities, and also recognise the pandemic may still be affecting the delivery of projects, either in how they’re delivered or how much they cost to deliver.
Funds are available for project costs such as facility hire and coaching, as well as for small capital improvements.
Key Information about the fund:
- Awards of £300 – £10,000 are available to not-for-profit organisations
- Multiple applications can be submitted but organisations can only have awards of up to £10,000 in any 12-month period
