National Subsidy Schemes 2012 

We know that money's tight, but CSSC can really help with activity costs with three national subsidy
schemes that can make all the difference.

There's nothing CSSC likes more than to help get and keep members active, to get them to try new things and to take on new challenges, so our increasingly popular subsidy schemes really help to make a difference.

Each one assists members to undertake activity or training when and where it best suits you rather than dictating a date, a time or a venue. Take a look and be a part of the action for 2012.

Activity Subsidy Scheme Subsidy_Scheme_1

The Activity Subsidy Scheme cuts the cost of taking part in prescribed sports by guaranteeing a set reimbursement against the entry fees of certain activities. The activities are:

All running events of 5 miles or over including 10Ks, Half Marathons, Marathons etc

Cycling challenges, including mountain biking, London to Brighton etc

Triathlons - including short course and other variations of the sport

Open Water Swimming events

The only events excluded are CSSC events for these activities which are, by their very nature, already subsidised.

Training Subsidy Scheme - New for 2012subsidy_scheme_4

Several members have asked whether CSSC could help with training costs to assist them become a sports coach, referee, umpire or other official.

So, from January 2012, CSSC will introduce a new scheme to provide a guaranteed level of reimbursement against fees for accredited training for these roles.

The scheme will pay up to 50% of the course costs with a maximum per course reimbursement of £75 for any member undertaking accredited training for sports coaching, refereeing, umpiring or similar roles as an official.

Scuba Diving SchemeSubsidy Scheme_5

We know there is a growing band of members that are getting hooked on Scuba Diving and CSSC is keen to establish the size of this group and to establish what activities and benefits they might like.

To help with this, the Scuba Diving Subsidy Scheme continues for 2012 and allows members to claim 50% reimbursement against their BSAC or PADI memberships.

So three great ways for members to get and stay active and to save money at the same time. If you know colleagues, friends or relatives that might be interested, tell that about the schemes and get them involved - they'll thank you for it afterwards!
