The Angus Irvine Playing Fields Fund (AIPFF) exists to increase opportunities for kids and young people in inner-city and disadvantaged areas to play sport and enjoy its many benefits.
We provide much needed grant funding to community clubs, many of which are volunteer led. This, in turn, enables them to transform the lives of underserved young people in their local communities.
