Changing Lives Fund 2019-22

The Changing Lives through Sport and Physical Activity £1 million Fund provided short term additional resource from 2019-22 into the sporting and community sector to better address wider individual and community needs through sport & physical activity and support them to become and stay active. It supported 17 partnership organisations delivering sport and physical activity in their communities through a grant allocation and a programme of learning and support, which aimed to develop the awareness and skills of individuals to better be able to deliver positive impacts across their communities. Impacts focussed on Sport for Inclusion, Sport for Health and Wellbeing, Sport for Skills and Sport for Communities.

The Fund was delivered by Spirit of 2012 as part of the Changing Lives through Sport & Physical Activity programme.
