Thanks to funding from London Marathon Foundation, The LGBT+ Fund, powered by Consortium, will be awarding a total of £400,000 over 2 years, to successful applicant organisations and groups working in LGBT+ sports and physical activities across the UK.
The LGBT+ Fund: Get Active Fund responds to the fact that LGBT+ groups delivering sporting and physical activities are under-resourced, facing consistent under-investment and challenges to accessing relevant opportunities. Systemic and social pressures also mean that LGBT+ individuals are more likely to disengage from physical activities in multiple settings, including those intended to be inclusive.
The fund aims to invest much needed resource into community based LGBT+ sports and physical activity-focused organisations and projects across the UK. It will prioritise grassroots groups supporting LGBT+ communities who face additional barriers to participation.
In 2026, organisations can apply for grants of between £5,000 and £25,000 per year for projects lasting 1 or 2 years.
Grants are available to those facing fuel poverty and have received money advice/guidance within the last six months.
Funding for initiatives that aim to address the drivers of financial resilience and promote lasting change - improving access to financial services, building financial capability, or tackling systemic barriers.
Capital funding for VCSE organisations that are building social connections across and between different communities.
