Funding Opportunities – 31 Jan 2017
England Rugby – Try for Change Fund
England Rugby have gone live with the first round of granting under the Try for Change Fund. In 2016, England Rugby joined forces with Comic Relief to launch the Try for Change Fund. The fund will use rugby union and the rugby union community to deliver social change in England and across the world.

Organisations can apply for between £2,500 and £10,000, for up to 12 months. Applications that target the most vulnerable and marginalised groups, for example young people who are NEET (Not in Education, Employment, or Training), will be prioritised.
Try for Change
Bringing together rugby’s core values of teamwork, respect, enjoyment, discipline and sportsmanship, Try for Change will work to tackle a number of social challenges.
If you are interested in learning more about the Try for Change Fund, a seminar will be hosted at Twickenham Stadium on Friday, 17 February from 12pm until 2.30pm. For more information please contact Tim Wainwright here.
For more details and to apply for funding from the Try for Change Fund, please check the Comic Relief grants page from 6th February 2017.
