Active Southland is proud to be managing Tū Manawa Active Aotearoa on behalf of Sport NZ in our region.
We have supported over 118 local organisations and distributed $949,000 to get more tamariki and rangatahi active in Southland. The key philosophies of using insights, physical literacy and being locally led are supporting young people to be active in a way they want to be.
Applications that take innovative approaches to engaging the young people in our community in quality play, active recreation and sport experiences in ways that meet their needs will be considered.
Tū Manawa Active Aotearoa provides funding for programmes or projects delivering play, active recreation and sport experiences for tamariki (5-11 year olds) and rangatahi (12 -18 year olds).
This fund has a particular focus on:
- Tamariki and rangatahi who are less active
- Girls and young women
- Disabled young people (including those in Special Schools up to 21 years of age)
- Those living in higher deprivation geographical communities or circumstances
Regards, the Active Southland Tū Manawa Active Aotearoa team.
