Active Wellbeing Fund
The aim of the Active Wellbeing Fund is to support institutions to deliver projects that improve the wellbeing of the students and staff within their institution, through specific delivery to tackle inequalities which may exist.
Projects will have a focus on strengthening the connections between physical activity and wellbeing so students and staff members can feel the benefits of an active lifestyle. The projects are designed to engage targeted audiences via a place-based approach.
You can find details of each project for both the 2024-25 and 2025-26 funds below:
