Active Lives funding
Through this programme we made grants totalling about £700,000 per year to charities and CASCs across the UK. Through Active Lives funding we aimed to:
- provide opportunities for personal or skills development through participation in physical activity
- meet the needs of people living with disabilities and / or living in the most deprived areas
We prioritised applications which:
- Provided high-impact, life-enhancing opportunities for those who live in the top 10% of areas of deprivation
- Focussed on grassroots involvement rather than elite participation in physical activity
- Focussed on providing qualifications, skills development or confidence building for individuals
- Incorporated effective strategies for creating a legacy and wider impact, perhaps through training, partnerships and/or dissemination activities
- Demonstrated a high degree of beneficiary involvement across the organisation and those with lived experience
