Pub retailer and brewer Greene King has pledged nearly £350,000 in funding to support grassroots sport within local communities across the UK.
Grants of up to £4,000 are available through the Proud To Pitch In Campaign, which raises funding through the sale of Greene King IPA for activities such as football, rugby, cricket, roller hockey or netball.
Applications can be made by grassroots and community sports clubs running activities for people aged 18 and over. Applications close 1st November 2024.
Examples of projects that have previously received funding include:
– Renovations of a club’s facilities, making them more inclusive and accessible
– Coaching qualifications and referee courses
– New equipment
The fund is particularly focussed on sports projects that have a long-term impact.
Projects must be located in the United Kingdom and project beneficiaries must be aged 18 or over.
