This year, the City of Tallinn has revised the fundamental principles of its sports support system for children and young people. The reform aims to encourage participation in organised physical activity by increasing both the number of children eligible for support and the amount of support per child. Starting next year, the support will extend to 35,000 young Tallinn residents, with the total funding volume rising to €12 million.

Organised for the first time, the free bulky waste collection week resulted in ten times as much bulky waste collected at Tallinn's waste collection stations than during the usual week in March. A total of 1 472 cubic metres of bulky waste was collected at the stations during the week, up from 125 cubic metres a week earlier.

People living in Tallinn according to the population register will be able to dispose of bulky waste such as furniture, bicycles and prams free of charge at the city's waste stations.

Starting in September, the City of Tallinn will introduce major changes to its sports funding principles for children and youth, increasing the total support volume by nearly 75 percent. This reform updates the previous funding system, which has been in place for almost 17 years. The new model aims to support a greater number of athletes and clubs, increase transparency, and link support more clearly to encouraging physical activity among young people.
