John Chard-Young Legacy Fund

The John Chard-Young Legacy Fund is a bursary scheme providing Adrenaline Alley sporting, Active In Motion (A.I.M) Health & Wellness Centre and counselling sessions to help improve the overall wellbeing of those in need. John Chard-Young was the co-founder and inspiration behind Adrenaline Alley, one of Europe's largest indoor BMX and Skateboard Parks and safe space for those interested in urban sports. The fund provides three types of support to individuals: Adrenaline Alley Action Sports Sessions for BMX riding, skateboarding, inline skating, or scootering; Active In Motion Sessions featuring power-assisted exercise machines, bungee fitness, or holistic therapies through Rockingham Forest Wellbeing; and Counselling Sessions with qualified counsellors focused on mental health and wellbeing. Applicants must be living in Northamptonshire (or outside if living with a disability), provide evidence of financial hardship such as means-tested benefits, and be existing active members of Adrenaline Alley or A.I.M. The fund supports individuals once per year, with potential extensions at provider recommendation.
