What we do

This, along with other donations and interest, is used by the Foundation to fund projects that inspire activity. Since 1981, more than £114 million has been awarded to 1,750 projects supporting people across the UK to lead active and healthy lives.

See our funding in action
We direct our funding towards children, young people and adults who face the biggest barriers to being active with a particular focus on children and young people. Our funding also reaches people with disabilities, older people, and people from lower socio-economic groups. Our funding means more people can support their physical, mental and social wellbeing by being active.
