Leisure activity grant
The town of Akranes supports leisure activities by providing a grant to all children and adolescents who are between the ages of 6-18 years and whose legal domicile is in Akranes. If a child has reached 18 years, he or she applies for the grant directly through the Residents' Portal.
The registration system in the Residents' Portal is called Nóri and the grant can be allocated and divided among sports associations if a child is active in more than one sport. The amount of the leisure activity grant at each time is decided by the municipal council. The grant can also be used for studies at Akranes Music School, and an application form must be filled out and submitted in the Akranes contact centre.
