Key takeaways

Mytime Active, through its Community Investment Scheme, offers grants of up to £1,000 to clubs and community organisations that want to increase sport or physical activity, run events, build capacity, improve access or improve community health, and it also lists creative lifestyles among its themes.
Only clubs and community organisations that operate, or plan to operate, in a Mytime Active facility, and recognised partner organisations working with it on health outcomes, can apply to the scheme, and its stated geographic focus is a priority for the London Borough of Bromley.
The scheme does not fund year-on-year costs such as management, overheads or office space, so ask for project costs such as venue hire, equipment, training, coaching, transport or marketing, and note that a club can receive only one grant per year.
Applications are accepted on a rolling basis: send the completed form and supporting paperwork to the Partnerships Team by post to the Bromley address or by email, stating what the funding will do and how outcomes will be measured, and be ready to acknowledge the charity in publicity and complete a monitoring form at the end.
The annual report gave no usable grants total or grant range, so the overall scale of giving is unclear, and a modest request within the £1,000 ceiling is the safest starting point.
