Awards for All

National Lottery Awards for All Scotland provides quick and straightforward access to small amounts of lottery funding for community projects. The programme is administered by the Big Lottery Fund and run in partnership with sportscotland. It gives groups a chance to apply for grants between £300 and £10,000 to support what matters to people and communities. The programme supports a wide variety of one-off costs for not-for-profit/voluntary or community groups, social enterprises, community councils, schools, and statutory bodies. The fund particularly encourages applications from smaller organizations and considers organizational income when making decisions. Community involvement in the design, development, and delivery of planned activities is a key priority. For sports projects specifically, sportscotland prioritizes projects that engage young people from the most deprived areas, engage girls and young women, and engage disabled young people. Applicants must demonstrate how their project or activity will bring people together and build strong relationships in and across communities, and improve the places and spaces that matter to communities.
