Youth Sector Support Fund
Bristol City Council has set up the Youth Sector Support Fund to support Bristol-based organisations working with local children and young people. The fund will support projects and collaborations that result in a diverse range of services for children and young people 8-19 years old and a stronger youth and play sector. This fund aims to complement Targeted Youth Services (TYS) contracts by filling gaps in services across the city.
This grant programme will:
- Help the play and youth sector become more sustainable by diversifying its sources of income, collaborating and working in new ways
- Fund open-access or more targeted services
- Prioritise areas of the city where there is a lack of activities or services for young people, or not enough services to meet the need
- Support both play and youth services, although the fund must prioritise youth services. Just over 10% of the funding can be spent on play
- Respond quickly to arising issues where a short-term response could help – for example, anti-social behaviour in a particular area. Applications for these emerging needs are by invitation only so get in touch with us to discuss your project before you apply.
Maximum grant is £5,000. For more information please visit: https://quartetcf.org.uk/grant-programmes/bristol-city-council-youth-sector-support-fund/
