New Grants Available to Support Older Adults in Kent – Join an Information Session!

Published: 25 September 2025

Dear all,

KALC is excited to announce the launch of Forever Active Kent – a new 3-year community micro grants programme designed to support and encourage older adults (aged 50+) to get more active across Kent. Your county needs you! Help Kent residents be Forever Active - News & Features - Kent County Council

These grants are available to community organisations delivering physical activity programmes that:

Help older adults improve strength, flexibility, balance, and coordination
Provide safe, enjoyable activities close to home
Reach underserved communities and those with the greatest need
Reduce inactivity and promote independence and quality of life

This is a fantastic opportunity to work together to help older adults in Kent stay active, connected and independent. Join them for a free online information session to learn more about the grant, application process, and monitoring requirements. You’ll also have the chance to ask any questions.

Choose a session that suits you:

Thursday 9th October | 10:30am – 11:45am
Wednesday 29th October | 1:00pm – 2:15pm
Wednesday 12th November | 6:30pm – 7:45pm

Please note: Funding is provided by Kent County Council, so all programme delivery must take place within the Kent County Council administrative boundary.

Kind regards
