Applications are available for schools or sport/activity clubs to provide extra-curricular activities, which encourage more young people to become active. Schools in designated target areas, with less afterschool clubs are encouraged to apply, to ensure that support reaches those who need it most.

Grants of up to £500 are available.
Grants are available to create a diverse and engaging sports events programme across the Tendring District. Applications are encouraged to emphasise the district's coastline and host new feel-good social events such as Beach Volleyball, Wellbeing Walks & Multi-Sports Beach Festivals etc. We aim to fund a wide range of sports and recreational activities for communities to participate, that cater to different interests and skill levels.
Closing Date: Applications will be considered and processed when they are received. This will continue until the funding has been exhausted.
Clubs, schools, clubs, agencies or constituted organisations can nominate young people to received grant funding to support a subscription to a sport and activity club. The fund would be paid directly to the sport and activity club for the young person.
This project focuses on the delivery of increased community transport via the provision of three additional minibuses. Two of the buses are to provide local community transport and one to support the provision of transport for 10 to 18 year olds facing personal and social challenges.
All organisations who are successful in gaining a grant will be expected to report on their transport delivery progress on a regular basis and provide vehicle purchase receipts within 28 days of receiving the funding award. Organisations who apply for funding will need to provide two minibus purchase quotes and clear outcomes built into their application.
Organisations can apply for up to £65,000, any additional costs will need to be match funded. Applications close on 18 July 2025.
