Possible discounted courses costs - London community sport gets £3million skills boost

A £3million programme will increase the capacity and skills of Londoners working and volunteering in sports in time for the 2012 Games. The Mayor's Legacy Skills Investment Programme provides subsidised training to increase the number of Londoners working and volunteering in the sports sector, and up-skill those already involved.

Interested Londoners can apply online for up to 75% off the cost of nationally recognised qualifications in areas such as coaching and officiating, community sport, volunteering, leisure and health. Funding is also available for people with disabilities to get the skills they need to get involved in their local sports scene.

All individuals need to do in return is volunteer their new found skills in their local community for an agreed number of hours.

To find out more about the programme and how you can get involved visit www.sportactivensa.co.uk/mayorslegacy or email or call 020 7632 2000 and ask for the legacy team.
