community scheme

The community scheme aims to create opportunities and build communities by funding projects that use football and sport to contribute to one of the following Community Programme Objectives:

 

  • Preventing and reducing offending.
  • Promoting respect amongst communities and bringing people together through football.
  • Improving educational attainment and lifelong learning.
  • Encouraging personal development from participation in football and sport through to volunteering, training and employment.
  • Tackling the rise of obesity in children and adults.
  • Improving the mental health and wellbeing of children and adults.
  • Tackling regional health inequalities in life expectancy and chronic illness.

 

    We are looking for projects that demonstrate they have considered equality of access in all areas of their work and we prioritise working with the most deprived groups and communities in England.

     

    We will usually fund up to £250,000 for community and education projects that last between one to five years. Percentage support varies but we aim to support projects at 50-65% of the total project cost.
