You cannot apply for funding for events/activities that have already taken place or for items that have already been paid for. Receipts will be required at the end of the grant. Please be aware funding may not be granted for up to 6 weeks, so please plan this in your funding request.

Athletes who have TASS (Talented Athlete Scholarship Scheme), Sports Aid or Backing the Best funding are ineligible for this fund.
