  • A decision in: 6 weeks
  • Programme status: Closed to applications

This fund is closed to new applications. This page provides a summary of the funding.

This funding is for projects that help young people in England take part in place-based youth social action. By place-based youth social action, we mean young people playing an active role in addressing the issues of a specific place or area that matter most to local people.

We’re particularly interested in projects that include young people from low-income communities.

This funding is provided by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) and The National Lottery Community Fund.

Match funding

We expect you to match the funding we give you. The minimum amount we can match fund is £200,000. For example, if we give you £200,000, you'll need to add at least £200,000 of your own money.

We may also be able to consider in-kind contributions to help meet this amount. These could include non-cash contributions that have a monetary value, such as goods, services, equipment or use of facilities.
