Children\u2019s Alliance<\/h2>\n

Non-profit organisations including schools, registered charities, community interest companies and registered community groups can apply for grants to deliver water-based projects for disadvantaged children. The funding comes from the Children\u2019s Alliance which aims to get children into water safely to learn, develop and purposefully play for the benefit of their physical and mental wellbeing.<\/p>\n

The funding is intended to support children under 18 years old who do not have access to swimming lessons or water activities due to a lack of funding. Grants can be used to deliver water-based projects such as swimming lessons, hydrotherapy or water play.<\/p>\n

The grants can be up to \u00a315,000 with most grants awarded being around \u00a35,000.<\/p>\n

Applications can be submitted in March or September.<\/p>\n
