Big Lottery Fund is committed to bringing real improvements to communities, and to the lives of people most in need. Big Lottery Fund is responsible for giving out half the money for good causes raised by the National Lottery, giving them a budget of about £630 million a year. They are committed to bringing real improvements to communities and the lives of people most in need.

By September 2007 all School Sport Partnerships will have had the opportunity to access Big Lottery funding for OSHL activities. It is targeted at young people who are most disadvantaged, disaffected or currently not participating. This includes additional monies for those partnerships that have expanded where new SSCO Clusters have been added.

The purpose of the programme is to provide learning activities to encourage and motivate targeted groups of pupils, build their self-esteem and help them reach higher standards of achievement across the curriculum.
