Initiatives and grants

There are several national and Greater Manchester wide initiatives and grants available to help people get moving:

Local Pilot

Following a competitive 12 month application process, Greater Manchester was selected as one of 12 Local Delivery Pilots (LDPs) by Sport England in December 2017. The LDPs work forms an important strand of the implementation of GM Moving, and will test and explore what it takes to secure population scale change in physical activity behaviour. Stockport received funding as part of the pilot, with investment approaches and opportunities for system change being examined with partner organisations, communities, and other stakeholders.

Sport England

Sport England has a range of grant programmes available to eligible parties, including local community organisations.
