Comic Relief Sport for Change
Comic Relief makes grants in the programme areas outlined, and organisations can make only one application to one programme at a given time.
- Grants range between one and three years.
- Funding is available for both Revenue and Capital costs. Examples of Revenue costs are salaries and hire of facilities. Examples of Capital costs are computers and office equipment. Building costs are a low priority.
- It is recognised that a true reflection of the cost of your project may include some organisational running costs. This is sometimes known as Full Cost Recovery, this expenditure can be included in your budget.
What we don't fund
There are certain types of work and organisations that we do not fund. If your proposal falls into one of these categories, please do not apply to us:
- grants to individuals
- medical research or hospitals
- churches or other religious bodies where the monies will be used for religious purposes
- work where there is statutory responsibility to provide funding
- projects where the work has already taken place
- statutory bodies, such as local authorities and Primary Care Trusts, or organisations seeking funding to replace cuts by statutory bodies
- profit-making organisations, except social enterprise
- where your 'free' (unrestricted or designated) reserves are more than one year's running costs, we may not provide the full amount you ask for - or may not fund at all - if we feel you have enough to pay for the work yourself.
- we are also unable to fund minibuses.
