Grants & Funding Hub

From building a new facility to buying a new team kit, developing the game takes money.

We know times are tough and that the cost of living crisis is being felt at grassroots clubs and organisations across the county. We want to be able to inform and direct participants, clubs and leagues to useful resources, funds and opportunities to support the game. 

By working in partnership with the Football Foundation, Sport England, Local Authorities and partner organisations, we aim shine to a light on the funding opportunities and grants available to the football community in our region.
