McDonald's KickStart Grants - New Fund Launch (UK)


McDonald's is providing grants through its new KickStart scheme to help support community football clubs throughout the UK which will help to develop their players and the community.
Eligible clubs must be:
  • Recognised by their national FA.
  • Have at least one team at or below junior (U18) level.
Individuals may apply on behalf of a club as long as they are over 18 and involved with the club at some level, such as a coach, volunteer or parent. Only one application can be made per club per project application period.
A total budget of £75,000 is available for 2012. One-off grants of between £500 and £2500 are available (including VAT for a single project).
Examples of eligible costs include:
  • Club facilities.
  • Grounds-keeping tools.
  • Training courses.
  • Pitch hire.
  • Mini-vans, washing machines, whatever the club and team could significantly benefit from.
The current deadline for applications is 30 June 2012.
