Building Life Chances - Informal Youth Activities Grant Application now open!
Do you or can you provide youth activities in Hertfordshire that:
- are informal
- operate outside of school term time, and
- do not require pre-booking or fees to access?
We are now accepting applications for the Informal Youth Activities Grant as part of the Building Life Chances programme. This is a multi-agency programme addressing the impact of Covid-19 on Hertfordshire residents who are vulnerable.
The pandemic has been tough for many young people who may not have had the opportunity or confidence to meet with friendship groups informally and may now have increased anxiety affecting their wellbeing. Therefore, we welcome applications from locally based community activities for young people aged 12-17 years that run all year round.
Each district in Hertfordshire will be able to access £25,000 for 2022-23. Grants will be awarded for any amount up to the maximum amount for that district.
Please email buildinglifechances@hertfordshire.gov.uk for further information including an application form. The closing date for applications is 11.59pm on Thursday 31st March 2022.
We want as many organisations as possible to have the opportunity to apply. Please share this opportunity as widely as possible with any organisations that you work with or that may be interested.
Please also keep your eye on our Grants page for other grants available.
