Glasgow first city to hold European Capital of Sport title twice as it announces funding grants

Glasgow becomes the first city to hold the title of European Capital of Sport twice - 20 years after first achieving the accolade.

Glasgow is a global sporting city and world leader in using sport to change lives, and the first phase of an ECOS Fund has awarded more than £50,000 to communities across the city to increase opportunities for people to take part in sport and get active.

Glasgow Life, the charity that delivers culture and sport in Glasgow, is providing funding to 70 sporting organisations throughout the city that applied for £750 grants to support people to get active, regardless of background or ability.
