Membership

As a Member you get access to the following resources:

Full website access - Once you become a Member of sported. you gain access to our online tools and resources. Here you will find a variety of different guides and templates to help you in every aspect of your organisation. A few examples include:

• Guides to the inland revenue

• Equal opportunity policies

• Funding guides

• Example constitutions 

• Budget templates

• Event planning templates

You'll also have the ability to contact other Members in your area. This could benefit you in many ways; from finding out about the latest funding opportunities to learning about other local initiatives in your area.

Our team of Experts - This is our online team of volunteers who have an expertise covering a wide range of areas. Members can post their questions online and our team of Experts will provide a response. Our specialised areas include:

• Accountancy and Finance 

• Business Planning

• Fundraising

• Insurance

• I.T.

• Marketing and Communications

• PR

Funding - All Members of sported. not receiving one-to-one Mentor support, are eligible to apply for a small grant of up to £2,000. Our Regional Managers make the initial decisions about applications for grants after meeting with Members. Rather than ask you to fill out endless forms, we'll work with you to submit an application to us. 

We'll also help you find other funding opportunities in your area and by using our relationships with local funders we can sometimes help fast track your bids.

At sported. we are always trying to make our service better for our Members. We are currently working on providing the following additional services:

• Discounted training

• Discounted insurance

• Priority access to facilities
