Sport England

National Trust - Nostell Priory

The National Trust has sites all over the country which offer everyone the chance to give sport a go. 

With over 300 acres of parkland,  trails and lakes, Nostell Priory is the perfect playground for anyone who wants to get active. 

 

The rhythm of sport

Do you consider football to be a winter sport? Ever wondered what impact the weather has on sport? Would you like to see if more people got active during London 2012?

Helping more women play sport

We want to get more women playing sport so we've invested £2.3 million into a pilot in Bury.
This funding will make it easier for women in the area to play sport. Find out more about our work.

What we do

Sport England is focused on helping people and communities across the country create a sporting habit for life.

We will invest over £1 billion of National Lottery and Exchequer funding between 2012 and 2017 in organisations and projects.

We also have a role protecting sports provision and must be formally consulted on any English planning applications that affect playing fields.
