#iwill - Youth Social Action Fund

Round Two Coming later this year

The first round of this new fund has now closed with £40,000 being distributed to eight organisations across the district. The aim of these grants is to raise the level and quality of youth social action. Social action involves activities such as campaigning and volunteering whilst developing the skills and knowledge of young people which are much sought after by employers. For the purposes of this fund, the definition of young people is those aged between 10 and 20, and up to 25 for the disabled.

We expect full details and an application form to be available from the website in early summer 2018. If additional information is required then please email info@wakefieldcf.org.uk.
