The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, what funding her Department has allocated to grassroots sports clubs in Maidenhead in the last 12 months.

Answered by Stephanie Peacock

The Government provides the majority of our funding for grassroots sport through our Arm’s Length Body, Sport England, which invests over £250 million in Exchequer and Lottery funding each year. £283,300 has been invested in the constituency of Maidenhead in the last financial year.

Future grassroots sport facilities funding is subject to the ongoing Spending Review process and we will announce further details in due course.
