COMMUNITY CLUB GRANTS – SUPPORTING UKRAINIAN FENCERS

The British Fencing Charitable Fund is offering grants to community clubs who are continuing to support members of the Ukrainian fencing community based in the UK.

We welcome grant applications from all BF-affiliated clubs that have been supporting Ukrainian fencers to participate in fencing and continue to do so.

Grants of up to £250 per club will be available for the following:

1. To contribute to club membership fees for Ukrainian fencers (the expectation is that the club can demonstrate these are or have historically been significantly reduced).
2. To contribute to equipment costs (the expectation is that any equipment is purchased/provided by the club on a loan basis and returned for general club use and the club can provide evidence of that).
3. To contribute up to 50% of entry fees for domestic competitions.

Based on the level of applications we may consider other uses, however please note we will not support international competition related costs.

For more information please refer to the application form. If your application is successful, we may ask for you to provide us with supplementary evidence before the award is granted (e.g. receipts, invoices, membership or equipment loan agreements etc).

The work of the BF Charity is only possible thanks to the generous donations of our community. If you would like to donate to this cause, please click the button below:
