Additional funding opportunities

There are various sources of funding that clubs may be able to access to help with their development plans. In addition to the bodies listed below it is always worth looking for local organisations with an interest in youth, sport, education and health. Clubs should also ask their local authorities, who often have sport development funding, and county associations who may offer development bursaries.

Active Partnerships (formerly County Sports Partnerships) often have details of local funding opportunities.

Michael Mogan, Swim England’s Head of Fundraising, has put together some useful Q&A’s.
