Sport Relief was set up by Comic Relief and BBC Sport to use the power and passion of sport to tackle poverty and disadvantage, both in the UK and in some of the World's poorest countries. In the UK, Sport Relief will fund projects which use sport and exercise to strengthen communities and provide opportunities for people who are excluded.
