Funding
Non-profit organisations including schools, registered charities, community interest companies and registered community groups can apply for grants to deliver water-based projects for disadvantaged children. The funding comes from the Children’s Alliance which aims to get children into water safely to learn, develop and purposefully play for the benefit of their physical and mental wellbeing.
Projects must support children under the age of 18 and clearly show the relationship to water or water environments within the project. The Children’s Alliance is interested in projects that address the following themes:
- physical activity
- mental health
- environment
- education
- participation
- diversity
The grants will usually be up to £15,000 with most grants awarded being under £10,000.
