We support families within Nottinghamshire and Nottingham City to access activities in their local area. We support children to access any activity they have passion for, including sports, music, and art! We pay for the child’s membership, equipment, and sometimes even tournaments!

Our aim is to get children active and engaging in opportunities they may not have had the chance to experience yet. We hope that this also gives carers and siblings some time to themselves for some much-needed respite.

How to get a child involved

  • Referral!

    Use our form on the referral page to get in touch with us about the help a family needs.

  • Matching

    Once we receive your application, we will look for clubs that suits the child’s needs! Please note that the matching service is not eligible to children with a diagnosed physical or mental health need, or children that require 1-2-1 support. We will expect pre-identified clubs for these children.

  • Time to get active!

    The child discovers a new hobby whilst carers take some time to themselves! We will continue to maintain a relationship during this stage, and make sure everything runs smoothly.
