Types of support
Fundraising vouchers
Our charity vouchers extend support to various organisations, businesses, and groups hosting fundraising events like raffles. We've proudly supported many local business raffles and school Mhelliahâs, ensuring that fundraising efforts thrive and continue to benefit the community.
Supported travel
The third and final application window for Supported Travel in 2026 is now closed.
Applicants will be informed of the outcome of their application by close of business on Wednesday, 7th October 2026.
Dates for the application windows in 2027 are being finalised and will be uploaded here once this has been completed.
Supported sports
Our supported sports scheme initiative helps athletes who compete beyond our island shores by providing essential support and discounted travel rates. Through this scheme, we've empowered many athletes to achieve their dreams and proudly represent the Isle of Man on a broader stage. To qualify for the scheme, applicants must complete six or more return trips from the Isle of Man to events in which they are competing within the calendar year.
