Angus Irvine Playing Fields Fund

Organised by Access Sport CIO

The Angus Irvine Playing Fields Fund (AIPFF) exists to increase opportunities for young people in disadvantaged areas of the UK to play sport. We provide much needed grant funding to community clubs that in turn transforms young lives in local areas.

Access Sport is a registered charity. We make inclusion the norm by tackling the access barriers faced by disadvantaged and disabled young people, focussing on the causes of exclusion—not just the symptoms.

Story

Please support the mission of AIPFF which is to create change through sport. We fund projects that change the lives of young people in troubled communities through sport activities.

The Funds origins date back to 2012 when the late Angus Irvine established the Playing Field Legacy Fund. He went on to raise hundreds of thousands of pounds to support community sports clubs reach disadvantaged young people who might otherwise be attracted by gangs or anti-social behaviour. To fully capitalise on what Angus achieved, the trustees joined forces with Access Sport in 2018 and formed the AIPFF.

An amazing example of AIPFF's work and through the generosity of donors, we have supported clubs like Moss Side Fire Station. This video tells the story:

Another club recently supported was the Ballers Academy. The money we raised helped star a new pan-disability football team, which created weekly pan disability football and multisport sessions. The participants love the opportunity to play and the club has become much more diverse because of this.

Thank you for your support.
