Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, how much has been spent to improve access to leisure and sports facilities in Easington constituency in each of the last five years.

The Government's recently published 'Sport Strategy' (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/sporting-future-a-new-strategy-for-an-active-nation ) provides a vision for future investment in sport, including increased funding for grass roots sports facilities. Sport England is now consulting on their own strategy to implement this.

Sport England’s National Lottery investment, broken down by parliamentary constituency, is publicly available on Sport England’s website and can be found here: www.sportengland.org/funding/investments-weve-made.
