About Samworth Brothers 'Sports Opportunity' Fund (Leicestershire)

The Samworth Brothers 'Sports Opportunity' fund has two different grants available. Awards of up to £1000 can be provided for projects nominated by Samworth Brothers staff, as well as a large number of Major Project grants which are awarded for larger projects in the community.

What do we fund?

The Samworth Brothers Sports Opportunity Fund has two grant funds;

• a larger grants fund is available which supports larger general projects each year. Multi-year projects of up to three years are also considered.

• a fund to provide small grants of around £1,000 for projects nominated by Samworth Brothers employees.

In summary we have five main criteria we will use to judge future applications.

A successful application will;

• be in a location where a Samworth Brothers business is an integral and important part of the local community

• support a club or organisation where sport is the starting point and the main focus of activities.

• support young people aged 12-18 years old, predominantly young people in hard to reach and disadvantaged groups.

• extend sporting capacity in some way

• be sustainable and able to continue once our funding is over
