Sport England Community Emergency Fund

Sport England make Funding available to support local community organisations experiencing the immediate financial impact of COVID-19

Sport England’s Community Emergency Fund is available to support local community organisations experiencing the immediate financial impact of COVID-19. 

The Emergency Fund aims to deliver immediate funding to those most in need and builds on the success of similar previous funds such as the Flood Relief Fund.

Please be aware that the Fund is aimed at helping those in the most urgent financial need. Football clubs/organisations should therefore only consider applying if their situation is critical.

It's specifically targeted at organisations, including those not currently supported by Sport England, who have a role in supporting the nation to be active but who are experiencing short-term financial hardship or the ceasing of operations due to the impact of coronavirus.

The types of organisations eligible include local sports clubs forced to close at short notice but who are facing ongoing costs around maintenance and utility bills, and voluntary and community sector organisations who deliver or enable sport and physical activity.
