Projects will need to show that they will improve environmental sustainability.
They must address at least one of the six Every Move priorities:
• Just transition: Inequalities, inclusion and participation
• Energy and resources: Carbon emissions – travel and facilities
• Energy and resources: Circular economy – supply chains, products and waste
• Nature: Blue-green environment quality and use
• Nature: Biodiversity
• Resilience: Adapting to climate change and extreme weather events.
Show they will benefit physical activity in the community
For example, by protecting existing opportunities as our climate changes, or creating new opportunities and attracting new individuals through the sustainability action. See examples below for more details
Have a clear, feasible and reasonable delivery plan
You are more likely to get funding if your project targets at least one of our priority groups:
• people living on low incomes
• disabled people or those with long-term health conditions
• older people
• people from culturally diverse communities
• pregnant women and parents with very young children
• girls aged 5-16
• LGBTQ+ people
• people who are in foster care.
You are also more likely to get funding if your project happens in an area with a high level of need.
