Sport England is focused on the creation of a
world-leading community sport system.
We invest National Lottery and Exchequer funding in
organisations and projects that will grow
and sustain participation in grassroots
sport and create opportunities for people to excel at their chosen sport. Our structure reflects this focus
Formerly known as the English Sports Council, we work in
partnership with UK Sport, which has responsibility for elite
success, and the Youth Sport Trust, which is focused on PE and
school sport.
Accountable to Parliament through the Department for Culture, Media and
Sport, we also have a role protecting sports provision as a
statutory consultee on planning applications that affect playing
fields
