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.
The new round of funding is currently open for applications, with a deadline of 1pm on Monday 11 November 2024. Please see below the guidance document and application form for your perusal.
The application form can be found here and the guidance document here.
Details of each of the projects for the 2024-25 fund can be found below:
