Freedom of Information Requests

The Freedom of Information (FOI) Act 2000 makes public bodies' information more accessible and allows people to request a wide variety of material.  The Information Commissioner's website gives more details on the FOI Act.

Here, we explain how you can make an FOI request, what material Sport England currently publishes and where it is available.

Environmental Information Regulations

The Environmental Information Regulations ensure that public bodies' environmental information is made more accessible and the Regulations work in a similar way to the FOI Act.  If you would like to ask Sport England for environmental information, please contact us at the address above.

Disclosure log

Sport England's FOI Disclosure Log is published every two months.  This is a list of all  Freedom of Information and Environmental Information requests and requests to re-use Sport England's information. The Log indicates whether we disclosed or withheld the information.

Information previously disclosed may be obtained from Sport England by writing to the address above.

Publication scheme

Sport England's Publication Scheme sets out what information Sport England publishes and explains how to obtain that information.

All Sport England publications can be made available in an alternative language or in Braille or large print format or on tape if requested. To request this service, please call 08458 508 508

Complaints and Feedback

We try to be as open as possible and provide you with the information you have requested but there will be occasions when we will withhold information because it is exempt under the FOI Act.

If you would like us to review our decision to withhold the information, you can ask for an internal review of our decision. A member of staff who was not involved in the original request will undertake the review and will inform you in writing of the outcome.

If you are unhappy with the outcome of an internal review and believe that we have not complied with our obligations under the FOI Act, you can complain to the Information Commissioner. Further details are available on the Information Commissioner website.

If you prefer, you may alternatively contact the Information Commissioner direct at:
