Since 1995, this national children’s charity has been building successful partnerships with schools, communities, health and sports bodies to create a lasting legacy, and National Lottery funding has been this mission in recent years.

One recent National Lottery funded project was the inspiring Grow, Live, Work film about the charity’s Local People Project initiative, which uses sport and physical activity to build social connectivity across five areas in the UK.
The initiative is currently in its third year and is being run across Brent, Swansea, Dorking, Hull and Milton Keynes.
The project and funding we received has given our community a chance to have a louder voice and create change on issues that matter to us. “We have achieved so much and it’s not just one age group making a difference, it’s intergenerational. I know this project will leave a lasting legacy.”
