funding
sustainable and not reliant on funding. This will include looking at training local workforce both paid and volunteer. StreetGames can help us towards achieving our target of 100,000 people from low socio-economic groups becoming more active as well as contributing towards other outcomes such as mental and physical well-being, individual and community development.
Q. How did you determine how much funding to award? Funding amounts are determined against a number of factors, such as the sheer numbers of disadvantaged young people who can be reached, past successes and good prospects for sustainability. The funding will be distributed over time
during the three-year period. StreetGames provided budgets for their application and these are monitored regularly, and revisions made if required. StreetGames can start accessing the funds as soon as their Lottery Funding Agreement is signed by both parties and conditions of that agreement are met in a timely manner.
Q. How will you work with StreetGames during this partnership? We are keen to learn and understand the impact of their work and how we may use this
to improve our work and share with other partners. We will continue to meet with StreetGames on a regular basis to discuss the progress of their work both towards targets and the social outcomes. We will do this in the way we set up during their application phase, to provide an opportunity for several Sport England areas of work to come together with StreetGames, to check, challenge and learn. In doing so we hope to widen the understanding of what StreetGames do and how we can connect them into other partnerships and work, to avoid duplication and maximise effort and learning.
Q. What advice would you give to organisations considering applying for funding? • Consider how the objectives of your organisation align to Sport England’s strategy Towards An Active Nation, particularly targeting audiences who do not get the same opportunities to take part in physical activity for whatever reason. • Show how you understand and know the audience/ community that you are working with (this doesn’t have to be in physical activity/sport) • Be able to demonstrate your track record of working within communities and what impact that you have had
• Keep an eye on our funding page on the Sport England website for opportunities and being able to submit ideas and applications.
