The objective of this funding challenge is to provide investment and support to early-stage University sport, health and wellbeing-related projects that contribute to one or more of the following aims:
- To amplify the impact of the University’s strengths in sport, health and wellbeing
- To draw together activities within the University that contribute to sport, health and wellbeing
- To consolidate and advance the University’s status as a global leader in sport
- To explore how we can maximise the health and wellbeing of the University community
Applications should:
- Focus on maximising impact in areas of strategic importance and go beyond ‘business as usual’ activities
- Span sport, health and wellbeing (although not necessarily equally)
- Involve staff and/or students from multiple academic schools, professional services, and/or athletic services
- Contribute to objectives of various University core plans and/or enabling projects
All project activities must be completed and all funds must be spent by 31 July 2024.
The total funds requested should be in the region of £1,000-£3,000, although well-justified projects applying for more funds will be considered.
