How will you increase physical activity?

The Movement Fund supports projects which remove barriers to taking part in physical activity. There are three ways that your project can approach this:

1. Get inactive people to start exercising

'Inactive' people are those doing fewer than 30 minutes of activity each week.

You'll be in our highest priority for getting funding if your project is for this group of people.

Show us when you apply:

  • that people are inactive today
  • how they'll start exercising as part of your project

2. Keep people active

Sometimes you can get funding for existing projects to continue.

For example, where people who are doing 30 minutes of activity a week would have to stop if the project ended.

3. Get active people to exercise more

'Active' people do at least 30 minutes of exercise each week.

Show us when you apply:

  • how are active now
  • how your project will help them be more active
