Support Us

We’re taking action to help kids from disadvantaged backgrounds lead happy lives and thrive, but we need you with us.

At SportInspired, our vision is clear: empowering children and their communities to thrive through the power of sports. The path to achieving this vision is not without its challenges. We have weathered the ongoing ripple effect of a global pandemic and grappled with the increasing cost of living crisis. But despite these hurdles, our commitment has only grown stronger.

Get involved

We know we do amazing work for young people in schools and communities across the UK, but we do need support to keep our work going. We don’t rely on government funding, but the generosity of our legendary corporate partners and supporters. Here’s how to support our young people & the work SportInspired does:

Donate

Your donations help us build stronger, more empowered communities and brighter futures for children and young people across the UK. Large, or small, every contribution helps reduce the impact of child poverty in our communities. Together, we can change children’s lives.

Partnerships

A corporate partnership will directly improve the lives of thousands of young people. Whether it’s through financial support or employee volunteering, there are plenty of ways for businesses to contribute to our work. We also partner with local authorities and housing associations, supporting them to create meaningful and lasting change in their communities against a backdrop of public sector spending cuts.

Fundraise

Every pound raised by community fundraisers enables us to help more children and achieve our mission. Without your generosity, we would not be able to fund the programmes that make a lasting difference to those communities who need it most. There are a number of ways to fundraise for SportInspired, which you can explore below.

Multi-sports festivals

Come on a life-changing day of fun with us! Whether you are a teacher and want your pupils to take part in one of our high-excitement festivals to sample six different sports available locally, or you are a sports club interested in leading some of these engaging sports sessions for kids of all abilities and characters — we’d love to hear from you.
