Elite Athlete Programme funding

Lincolnshire's Elite Athlete Programme (LEAP), through its partnership with the Adam Gibbons Sports Foundation (AGSF), provides valuable support, guidance and advice, as well as financial donations to help athletes achieve their dreams. We work with a range of partners across the districts of Lincolnshire, each committed to supporting athletes.

On applying to be a LEAP athlete, Active Lincolnshire will work alongside these partners to support athletes through training and education.

Visit our dedicated LEAP page to find out more about the programme.

Covid recovery funding

To support the Lincolnshire workforce as it strives to return to normal after the Covid pandemic, we’ve created a dedicated funding page, connecting you with all the information and links you need to access current funding options.

Visit our Covid recovery funding page.

Together with our key partners, we’re offering a range of funding opportunities to help local clubs, activity providers and organisations restart their services. This includes the Tackling Inequalities Fund, which has been created to address the negative impact the pandemic has had on under-represented groups, offering accessible and inclusive opportunities to the communities that need the most support.

On our Knowledge Hub, you’ll also find an area dedicated to Covid support, including the latest government guidelines and guidance on reopening your clubs and facilities.
