This includes continuing delivery of funding through the Multi-Sport Grassroots Facilities Programme this year, and a commitment to work with the sector to develop a funding package that will support these plans.<\/p> We provide the majority of support for grassroots sport through our arm\u2019s length body, Sport England \u2013 which annually invests over £250 million of National Lottery and government money. Sport England\u2019s newly established Movement Fund offers crowdfunding pledges, grants and resources to improve physical activity opportunities for the people and communities who need it the most.<\/p> <\/p>"}
