Kellogs Active Living Fund
A new fund has been launched that could help develop community sports projects in Cumbria.
Kellogs Active Living Fund ( www.kellogs.co.uk) will give small grants to fund projects and activities that directly lead to people taking part in sustained physical activity. The aim of the fund is to help remove the “barriers” which stop people being active. Kellogg’s Active Living Fund is very keen to fund activities that enable adults and children to exercise together.
Who can apply?
The fund is open to applications from charities and other voluntary and community organisations. Schools can apply but the fund will only consider contributing towards extra curricular activities that promote sustained physical activities.
How much can I apply for?
Kellogg’s will make a grant of up to £1000 but will only fund activities or projects where the grant makes a significant impact. For example Kellogg’s would consider a grant of £1000 to a £2000 project but will not consider a grant of £1000 to a £10,000 project.
Are there things that the Active Living Fund will not pay for?
- To Individual athletes, sportsmen and women.
- For costs associated with salaries or posts.
- To profit making organisations.
- Towards transport costs, as all projects should be accessible to ensure sustainability.
- To applications where the request does not directly support the activity being undertaken, for example the Fund will consider a request for equiptment, but not for maintenance on a building being used.
- To retrospective applications, where the activity has either taken place or has commenced at the time an application is considered by the Kellogg’s panel.
When will I know the outcome of my application?
A panel of Kellogg’s employees meets every two months to assess applications. You should receive a decision on your application within approximately 10 weeks of submitting your application.
Please note that the panel’s decision is final and there is no right of appeal.
