Grow Your Club grants in Wakefield
Applications are now open for the 2025 Grow Your Club grant programme designed to help grassroots sports and activity clubs in Wakefield thrive — whether that’s through better equipment, support with venue costs, or training for volunteers.
Grow Your Club Application Form
To give you a sense of what this funding can achieve, we’ve just released a short video that offers a light-hearted but insightful look at the challenges many clubs face — from mismatched gear and chaotic training sessions to venues that are anything but fit for purpose.
You’ll also see how last year’s funding helped 12 local clubs turn things around — with proper coaching, better kit, and the right spaces to grow their teams and communities.
If you have any questions, please contact the team at sportandpa@wakefield.gov.uk
