They are inviting applications from local voluntary sports clubs seeking financial assistance in their work and activities.

Seeding grants are available for newly-formed clubs along with help for the purchase of equipment essential for health and safety purposes, the organisation of courses for young people and building closer school/club links.

Grant aid is also available for individuals who are competing at a high level in their sport. Individuals may apply for grant aid at anytime of the year.

Also this year, the Lurgan 400 Sports Celebratory Fund will provide financial assistance to sports clubs in Lurgan who wish to run an event in 2010 as part of the Lurgan 400 celebrations.

Clubs can apply for grant aid during April or May and completed forms must be returned no later than 4pm on Friday, May 28, to Anne Benson at Lough Neagh Discovery Centre, Oxford Island National Nature Reserve, Lurgan, BT66 6NJ.

Further information is available from Wanda Rea, Chris Cassidy or Anne Benson at 028 3831 1693.
