Active Communities is a local initiative by Get Doncaster Moving in partnership with Well Doncaster, designed to support residents in creating and sustaining community-led activities that improve physical and mental wellbeing. The programme offers small grants (up to £500) to individuals, community groups, schools, charities, and other not-for-profit organisations to help launch or grow projects that get people more active, reduce social isolation, and enhance community spaces.

The grant scheme encourages a wide range of ideas—from exercise classes and local events to improvements in public areas and volunteer training. While the application process is currently paused, interested residents can still engage with their local Well Doncaster Officer for guidance and support.
