Decision:

To allocate £10,000 to a grants scheme to increase participation in sports and leisure activities.

The Leisure & Tourism Portfolio Holder has concurred with this decision being made.

Alternative options considered:

Option 1 - excluding sports and leisure from the Shared Prosperity Fund. Excluding sports and leisure would not have been in alignment with council priorities.
Option 2 - allocating the money to an in-house project at TDC. This would have been challenging to resource given the time available for spend.
