Community Asset Fund – Sport England

6/8/2018

0 Comments

 
Whether it’s the park you run through, the hall you do classes in or the pitch you play on, welcoming and accessible spaces have a big impact on a person’s experience – and likelihood of coming back.

As part of this, Sport England have produced a guide and accompanying document to explain more about the new Community Asset Fund, how and why they're doing things differently, when they will make decisions plus tips and advice for developing your project or idea.
Sports clubs and community organisations can now apply for investment from the Community Asset Fund – Sport England’s new capital fund dedicated to enhancing the spaces in local communities that give people the opportunity to be active.

This fund will have a value of £15 million per annum with the anticipated size of bids between £1000 and £150,000. There is no deadline to apply and awards will be made from February 2017.

The Yapp Charitable Trust

Usually up to £3,000 for up to 3 years. Registered charities (annual expenditure of less than £40,000, established for 3 years or more). No deadline specified (Trustees meet 3 times per year - decision time can be up to 5 months from submission).

The Yapp Charitable Trust make grants (running costs and salaries) to small registered charities to sustain their existing work within the following areas:
  • Elderly people.
  • Children and young people aged 5 – 25.
  • People with disabilities or mental health problems.
  • Moral welfare – people trying to overcome life-limiting problems of a social, rather than medical, origin (such as addiction, relationship difficulties, abuse, offending).
  • Education and learning (with a particular interest in people who are educationally disadvantaged, whether adults or children).
Priorities (applications that don't address at least two of these are unlikely to receive a grant):
  • Work that is unattractive to the general public or unpopular with other funders.
  • Services that help to improve the lives of marginalised, disadvantaged or isolated people.
  • Applicants that can demonstrate an effective use of volunteers.
  • Charities that seek to be preventive and aim to change opinion and behaviour through raising awareness of issues, education and campaigning.
  • Applicants that can demonstrate (where feasible) an element of self-sustainability by charging subscriptions/fees to service users.

The £3m Sporting Capital Fund provides loan funding of between £50,000 and £150,000 to eligible organisations. 
​
Our simple, repayable, unsecured loans will be tailored to meet the needs of each organisation and will be repayable over 3 to 5 years.  If needed, a repayment holiday of up to 24 months may be available, giving projects time to generate sustainable revenue before starting to repay the loan.  

We can invest in organisations that are looking to develop new projects, operations and revenue streams. Whilst every organisations’ needs will differ, we expect the funding to be used for projects and activities such as:
  • Equipment to support revenue streams 
  • Recruitment, training and deployment of staff and volunteers 
  • Equipment to support business functions, including finance, project management and governance 
  • Other operating costs
