Community Sport & Physical Activity Small Grant Scheme

The aim of the Community Sport & Physical Activity Small Grant Scheme is to support growth and strengthen the sustainability of community sports clubs and grassroots organisations who are providing opportunities for their communities to engage in physical activity on a regular basis.

• Applicant sports clubs must be registered with Club Durham to be eligible (for details about Club Durham membership and benefits see below).
• Organisations that are not sports clubs can apply to this fund if they are delivering outcomes that meet the fund objectives. They must satisfy appropriate due diligence checks as part of the grant assessment process.
• All applicants must be based in County Durham (within the administrative area of Durham County Council) and meet the general funding conditions.
• All applicants must be seeking a grant of between £1,000 and £5,000 for a project which is clearly linked to the intended outcomes.

To be eligible to apply for this funding, the name of the applicant, along with their bank account, governance and accounts must all be in the same name, if this is not the case the application will be rejected.
