GLL is the largest UK-based charitable social enterprise delivering leisure, health, and community services, it is dedicated to supporting sport in the community and plans to cultivate an era of sporting success amongst British athletes. In [previous years](https://www.financedigest.com/glastons-interim-report-1-january-31-march-2018-orders-received-grew-23-comparable-operating-profit-at-previous-years-level.html "Glaston’s Interim Report 1 January – 31 March 2018: Orders received grew 23%, comparable operating profit at previous year’s level"), it has helped now-established stars including Anthony Joshua, Tom Daley and Lutalo Muhammad. Up-and-coming athletes often face huge [financial burdens in areas such as training](https://www.financedigest.com/mazars-to-acquire-financial-modelling-consultancy-and-training-provider-corality-financial-group.html "Mazars to acquire financial modelling consultancy and training provider, Corality Financial Group") and travel. With this in mind,  GSF has announced that 2,978 talented young athletes from across the UK – including modern pentathlete Joe Choong and Paralympic swimmer Stephanie Millward – will benefit from a cumulative £1.2m worth of free gym and swim memberships. Annodata has made no secret of its ambition to continue supporting the UK’s top [athletes](https://www.financedigest.com/puma-hones-focus-on-speed-in-olympic-battle-with-adidas-and-nike.html) in their pursuit of success, as part of its steadfast commitment to [corporate social responsibility](https://www.financedigest.com/corporate-social-responsibility-within-the-festival-industry.html "Corporate Social Responsibility Within The Festival Industry") (CSR). **Martin Fairman,** **Group [Sales and Marketing Director](https://www.financedigest.com/adnami-appoints-sophie-spencer-as-uk-agency-sales-director.html "Adnami appoints Sophie Spencer as UK Agency Sales Director"), commented:** “We made the decision to begin supporting the GLL Sport Foundation in 2015, and it is a pleasure to announce the renewal of our sponsorship with this incredible institution. Many bright and talented athletes throughout the United Kingdom are unable to chase their dreams of sporting [success due to lack of funding](https://www.financedigest.com/why-ai-can-be-the-key-to-success-for-fund-managers-in-the-post-covid-landscape.html "Why AI can be the key to success for fund managers in the post-COVID landscape"), especially with the disruption caused by the pandemic. We’re passionate about helping GSF give equal opportunities to all [young people](https://www.financedigest.com/banks-need-to-digitise-financial-wellbeing-support-to-help-young-people-manage-through-this-recession.html "Banks need to digitise financial wellbeing support to help young people manage through this recession"), and achieving their dreams of competing on the international stage.” **Peter Bundey, GSF Chair, commented:** “These last 16 months since the arrival of the [Covid-19 pandemic have had an unprecedented impact on our lives](https://www.financedigest.com/freedom-day-sydney-reopens-as-australia-looks-to-live-with-covid-19.html "‘Freedom Day’: Sydney reopens as Australia looks to live with COVID-19") and freedoms to protect lives and combat the virus.
