Sport England is investing a further £360 million of National Lottery and government funding into 78 more partners to help people in England get active and tackle long-standing inequalities within access to sport and physical activity.

The funding comes on the back of the £193m investment in 43 partners they announced in March and brings their total contributions to more than £550m in 121 partners.

The new investment model will see organisations receive funding for up to five years, in order to provide longer-term financial security that allows organisations to recover and reinvent from the impact of the coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic.
