SUPPORTIN SPORT Funding 2026
Jersey Sport is excited to announce the launch of the revised SUPPORTIN SPORT FUNDING opportunities for 2026. Developed in response to feedback from the local sporting community, these funding opportunities are designed to reflect the evolving needs of sport in Jersey.
SUPPORTIN SPORT FUNDING will distribute £1,000,000 to sport in 2026, made possible thanks to:
- the generous legacy of the late Valerie Guy
- realigned distribution of the Channel Island Lottery funding
- funding from the Government of Jersey
- Jersey Sport’s own fundraising efforts
SUPPORTIN SPORT FUNDING aims to empower Jersey’s sporting community by providing specific funding opportunities that meet the changing needs of participants, volunteers, and organisations—helping sport in Jersey thrive in 2026 and beyond.
