About the fund

Barnsley Council's What's Your Move Fund supports community-led activity that helps inactive people move more, reduces inequalities in physical activity and creates inclusive, sustainable opportunities. Grants of up to £5,000 are available and projects can run for up to two years.

Who can apply

Local community organisations, community groups, friends groups, sports and physical-activity delivery organisations and local sports clubs can apply. Work in eleven named Barnsley communities and work with people who have disabilities or long-term health conditions is prioritised, although projects elsewhere in Barnsley can be considered. Capital costs, items costing more than £1,000 and projects aimed only at children under 16 are excluded.

Applications

The official guidance states that the fund is open all year round. Applicants first submit an expression of interest and successful proposals are invited to complete a full application.
