Sport England partners with Grant Thornton to help grassroots clubs manage their finances
POSTED 26 Nov 2018 . BY Tom Walker
The partnership has been designed to help sports clubs across the country better manage their finances
Financial adviser Grant Thornton has created a programme of online workshops aimed at helping
grassroots sports clubs to better manage their finances.

The workshops are part of a partnership between the business specialist and Sport England and include topics such as “Future fitting your finances”.

All content and workshops will be made available via Club Matters, a website run by Sport England offering sports clubs free practical resources.

“Finances are often a challenge for sports and community clubs, which is why we are partnering with Grant Thornton to offer support in this area," said Rosie Benson, head of clubs at Sport England.

"Sports clubs who are successful in the long term are built on sustainable finances and we hope the latest videos go some way to de-mystifying some of the key financial processes that clubs often face.

“These videos add to our growing resource of tools on the Club Matters website, which has helped thousands of clubs so far."
