LTA Tennis Foundation hands out seven more grants

LTA Tennis Foundation has awarded grants to seven organisations in its third round of funding through its Grant Making Framework.

The grants awarded will support disabled children, young people, and adults to access tennis sessions, support education around the inclusion of LGBTQ+ groups within tennis and see tennis delivered in underserved communities.

Among the organisations to receive investment from the latest round is Krimmz Girls Youth Club, which delivers an awardwinning programme of physical, social, and confidence-building activities for girls aged 11-18 from predominantly muslim and South- Asian communities living in areas of deprivation across Bolton.

Founder, Khadija Patel said: “We’re excited to have been given the opportunity to create more opportunities and access for muslims to participate in tennis, which have been limited due to financial constraints and lack of facilities to cater for the needs of the community. The support will heavily promote inclusivity within the sport.”
