Summer Opportunities Fund
Fund details & criteria
Fund purpose
The SNG Summer Opportunities Fund offers microgrants of up to £1,000 to help local groups deliver free, fun and enriching summer activities for children, young people, and families living in SNG communities. We know that holidays can be challenging for some families, especially those on lower incomes. This fund helps bridge the holiday experience gap for children who may otherwise miss out. Our aim is to support projects that give young people aged 5 to 16, the chance to: • Have fun through accessible, and free activities • Socialise, build their confidence, and stay healthy • Stay active and access support for their mental wellbeing • Take part in educational and development opportunities Projects must be taking place in an SNG community and be actively promoted to SNG customers. Projects will support children, young people, and their families/carers. We will prioritise funding groups that are targeting low-income households/children that are eligible for free-school meals. Further information about projects we will fund, eligibility and our communities can be found on our website - https://www.sng.org.uk/thriving-communities/summer-opportunities-fund
