## Summary

The Bolton Council is currently offering a funding opportunity titled "Grants Funding Programme - Cricket Development Grant Scheme" aimed at enhancing grassroots cricket in Bolton, England. This open procurement process, classified under Recreational, Cultural and Sporting Services, is in the tender stage and deadlines for submission are set for 14th December 2017. The grant is valued at £300,000 and aims to support various development outcomes including increased participation in sports and improved community engagement.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in sports development, community engagement, or related services to expand their operations. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) would be particularly well-suited to compete for this grant, given their potential to contribute effectively to the objectives of increasing participation and reducing physical inactivity within the community.

## Notice

In 2015 the Government published the Sporting Future: A New Strategy for an Active Nation strategy. The strategy goes beyond widening participation in sport and sets out the following five outcomes: * physical wellbeing, * mental wellbeing, * individual development, * social and community development * economic development. The Bolton Cricket Development Group and partners, has agreed a development plan which sets out the following outcomes: * increasing participation * reducing physical inactivity * engaging the community * improving links between clubs and schools * developing volunteers. Bolton Council recognises the value of sport and how it can contribute to meeting the need of the local residents and continues to work in partnerships to promote the benefits of sport and physical activity. The Council has made available a Cricket Development Grant Scheme (2017) to help support and contribute towards the implementation of the Bolton Cricket Development plan to invest in grassroots cricket in the borough. Applicants must meet the criteria as stated in the grant documents. Grant application documents are available for access via The Chest (www.the-chest.org.uk)
