The Let’s Get Moving Fund 2022 aims to support the development of well-planned initiatives designed to increase participation in recreational sport and physical activity by older people during Positive Ageing Week 2022.  Positive Ageing Week will take place from the 26^th September -1^st October 2022.

Funding is available to assist community groups and organisations to enhance existing opportunities for their members in recreational sport and physical activity, or to start new initiatives geared at involving older people in recreational sport and physical activity.  Funding is available only for the purposes of developing an initiative that will begin during Positive Ageing Week 2022.

We would encourage all groups/organisations to contact local sports clubs and physical activity providers to enquire about opportunities that may exist for older people or to discuss opportunities that could be created for your group/ organisation.
