Only 4 days to go until applications close for the GLL Sport Foundation🚨

If you know an athlete, any age, who might benefit from a free gym membership and potential cash awards then get them to apply to: https://brnw.ch/21wZZKM

Since it's inception in 2008 the foundation has supported over 31,000 athletes and this year we are aiming to support more than ever.

Do you know a competitive athlete who would benefit from free gym access and more?

Every year in Hackney we support a range of athletes to achieve their sporting goals. Just like Isla who receives support for swimming.

"I have dreamt of becoming an Olympic swimmer for as long as I can remember. In the year ahead there will need to be huge levels of training to achieve my potential...so support from the GLL Sport Foundation is particularly important in my situation. My study schedule means that I cannot attend as many of my regular training and gym sessions as I need. GLL Sport Foundation support enables me to undertake training at other times that do not impact my educational goals."

Applications are open until 20th February.
