Grants
Our grants help cover one-off or short-term costs—like equipment, race entries, travel, or coaching. Perfect if you’re just getting started or need a boost to keep progressing.
What is a LouLou Grant?
We know how much sport can give young people, but sometimes the costs of getting there are a barrier. Lou Lou Grants are one-off awards of up to £1,500, designed to help you move forward when finances are holding you back.
We fund things like:
- Travel to events or training camps
- Kit and equipment
- Coaching or club fees
- Competition Entries
