“Inspired?” Toolkit Small Grant Scheme

• “Inspired?” is a toolkit that is the result of partnership work between a variety of partners representing the providers of grassroots physical activity services. The toolkit has been developed to help physical activity practitioners create their own association with the Olympic and Paralympic Games and thereby make the London2012 Games “The Games for Everybody”.
• The toolkit is designed to complement existing work – not complicate it; keep ideas simple and realistic; and create the stimulus for creative (2012 related) thinking
 Awards are for amounts from £200 to £500 and the SGS is open to any voluntary or community association, statutory body or educational establishment in Worcestershire.
 Grant applications will be accepted from Sept 2010 up until the fund has reached its budget.
• The Small Grant Scheme is open to activities that are inspired by the “Inspired?” toolkit (i.e. the Olympic and Paralympic Games) and can demonstrate a desire to increase participation in sport or physical activity
 The Inspired? toolkit is available on line at www.raisingourgame2012.org.uk
