Sports clubs, community organisations and local groups can now apply for a second round of funding through Midlothian Council’s Summer of Sport Grant Scheme.
The funding is available as part of sportscotland’s Summer of Sport investment, which aims to help children and young people aged 3 to 26 across Midlothian get active, stay active and improve their lives.
The grant scheme supports safe, welcoming and inclusive opportunities that reduce barriers to participation and help more children and young people connect with sport and physical activity.
Funding is available through:
– Level 1 awards of up to £1,000
– Level 2 awards from £1,000 up to £3,000 per project
Organisations can apply more than once, including as part of different partnerships, provided each application is for a different project.
