Salisbury 2020 Coach Bursary

Following the latest government recommendations and restrictions on organised group activity, the Salisbury 2020: Project20 and Club Grant programmes will be temporarily suspended with immediate effect. Thank you to those individuals and clubs who have already submitted applications. These will be considered and further communication will follow shortly to applicants. The situation will continue to be monitored and the programmes relaunched for an extended period when deemed safe to do so in line with government advice. 

Salisbury 2020: City on the move is a year-long programme of events and activities marking the 800^th anniversary of the laying of Salisbury Cathedral’s first foundation stone and the development of Salisbury.

As part of our work to support the festival, we are looking to develop a legacy of 20 new coaches who can provide more opportunities for people to get active.
