The National Sports Foundation ('The Foundation'), funded by Sport England, is a Government-led initiative designed to facilitate and encourage partnerships between private investors and community sports projects in England. We do this by matching new and additional private investment with Foundation funding, on a pound for pound basis. This is a great opportunity for both investors and community sports organisations to work together to improve the sporting infrastructure of the country.
