LTA Tennis Foundation supports organisations that use tennis and padel to improve lives, with a strong emphasis on access, inclusion, and community impact rather than elite sport. Its grantmaking and related investment tools back pilots, scaling proven delivery models, short-term recovery support, and facility improvements that open up courts in schools, parks, and underserved communities. The foundation is also distinctive for combining charitable grants with loans and infrastructure investment to expand participation in Great Britain, including a targeted Scotland indoor tennis fund.
Primarily programmatic and strategic, using themed grant rounds, facility loans, and infrastructure support rather than open-ended annual grants. Grants are currently not open and are expected to return in 2027; funding is likely competitive, initiative-specific, and sometimes tied to LTA-led programs or facility development projects.

Monitor the grants page for 2027 reopening dates and be prepared for a themed application aligned to Innovate, Scale, or Recover. Applicants should show clear community access benefits, measurable participation outcomes, and strong operational capacity; facility-related proposals should emphasize how courts will be more open, usable, or inclusive for local communities.
