The Active Communities Fund (ACF) was established by the Palmerston North City Council to help its residents remove financial barriers to participation in play, active recreation, and/or sport.
The ACF is governed by PNCC's Support and Funding policy 2022.
Please read the ACF's Information Sheet before applying to the fund.
The ACF aims to remove barriers to participation through the provision of:
- Activity related costs that support residents who are physically inactive to become physically active
- Activity related equipment not provided through a club, school, or activity provider.
- Activity uniform, clothing, or footwear.
- Facility fees or Event costs.
- Access to one on one or small group coaching.
- Opportunities that support a life-long love of being physically active.
- Travel related costs to enable participation.
Note: The ACF does not support higher level competition or representative funding
costs.
