British Orienteering

Funding Opportunities

There are multiple opportunities for your club to apply to funding for projects, trips and more. 

The Orienteering Foundation

The Orienteering Foundation is always interested in funding a specific project if it fits their criteria. They review grant applications four times a year so make sure you time your application right! Deadlines for submission are 31st March, 30 June, 30 September and 31 December. 

There are examples of successful applications to the Orienteering Foundation on their website here, to see what has been funded previously.


University funding opportunities

Your university may have opportunities throughout the year to apply for funding or grants to be spent on equipment for training, kit, or to help get club members to competitions. If you do require some extra funding, it may be worth contacting your Athletic Union or Student Union to ask about any upcoming application opportunities. 


Discounts

You can get in touch with your local sports shops for discounts on equipment and utilise your individual British Orienteering membership discounts.
