Scottish Community Foundation
The Scottish
Community Foundation was established in 1996 to support locally
based charities and community groups throughout Scotland.
Sports
Relief Grants
In
the UK, Sport Relief funds projects that use sport and exercise
to strengthen communities and provide opportunities for people
who are excluded or disadvantaged.This
may be through low income, rural or social isolation, age,
disability, race, sexuality or gender.
Sport
Relief is not simply about supporting sports activities or
helping sports clubs expand; it's about helping organisations
that want to use sport and exercise to work with disadvantaged
or excluded people and improve their quality of life.
