The Movement Fund - Sport England

We offer up to £15,000 for physical activity projects in the community. The focus is on people who face barriers to activity and projects designed to help them join in.

You can apply for projects to get more people active, like:

1. Setting up new experiences or activity sessions for people to get involved.

2. Helping improve, or create new spaces for people to be active in – or providing the equipment they need to do the activity.

3. Improving both environmental sustainability and providing physical activity opportunities.

4. Supporting organisations to build their capacity and capability so they can help the people in their community to be active.

5. Responding to emergencies that impact on people taking part in physical activity, and helping get activity happening again.

Key facts 

• Support available: Grants or pledges from £300 to £15,000
