Youthbank Youthbank supports groups of young people aged 14-25 who
want to improve their community. Small grants are available
for young people to help them put their ideas into action.
How it works
Committees of young people, themselves, give out the money
to young people. The committee members come from a range of
backgrounds, are between the above age range and live across
the whole district.
Members of the committees are involved in the following tasks:
fundraising, visiting community groups, planning and developing
strategy, publicity and public relations, grants assessments,
deciding which projects get the grants, attendance at national
youth events.
News
Last year the committees gave out a total of £28,500 to youth
led projects and groups working with young people, across
the district.
This year the committees have further monies to distribute
to youth led projects. this money has been awarded to the
committees by the National Youth Agency and the Transforming
Youth Work, Community Cohesion fund.
Information
If you want to apply for a grant or have an idea that you
want to carry out, or want to be part of the committee, please
