Up to £2,000 in grants is once again being made available to sportspeople in Littlehampton, courtesy of the Town Council and the Littlehampton Sports Forum.

The Sports Grants are open to Littlehampton residents who require additional financial support towards training, competition fees, transport, accommodation and equipment. Aimed at those already playing at county level, the fund enables such individuals to develop their potential and to progress further in their chosen sport.

With no age restrictions awards of up to £1,000 will be available to each recipient, but applications should be made for as little as needed to allow more people to benefit.

Councillor Sean Lee, Chair of the Sports Forum, said: “Littlehampton Town Council and the Littlehampton Sports Forum are committed to supporting and developing local sports people.  Together we help them achieve sporting excellence! Together we can promote the diverse sporting talent of Littlehampton.”

Applications can be made online at www.littlehampton-tc.gov.uk/sportsgrants or obtained from the Littlehampton Town Council offices, Manor House, Church Street. Closing date for applications is Monday 11 March 2024.
