About This Opportunity

The 23 Foundation was established by Jamie Carragher, Liverpool FC's number 23, with the Community Foundation for Merseyside in 2009 using proceeds from his charitable Testimonial match and matched government funds. The Foundation provides grants to young people in Merseyside to help them achieve their full potential through sport and education. The program supports individuals aged up to 25 who reside in the Merseyside area and are looking to further their sporting career through coaching qualifications or participation in sporting competitions. Priority is given to individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds, particularly those living in Sefton. This funding opportunity helps remove financial barriers for young athletes seeking to develop their skills, obtain coaching qualifications, compete in major regional, national, or international sporting events, or pursue scholarships with universities or sporting bodies.
