Do you have a great youth leadership project that you want to scale up?

Do young people you work with have innovative ideas that need some money to get them off the ground?

The Youth of Today Leadership Fund helps third sector organisations scale up innovative youth leadership projects, and reach out across communities.

We've got £1 million of funding to give away to great organisations across England, to be spent by March 2011. And your organisation's project can be part of how that money is allocated.

Scaling Up. This fund helps small organisations take their existing projects to the next level. Funding is for delivery and staff costs. Round 3 is open. The deadline for applications is 23 April 2010. The deadline for Round 4 (6 month projects only) is 23 June 2010.

There will be no further rounds of Scaling up.

In the next few weeks we will also be launching our Young Leaders Fund. We will give out an additional 8 grants of up to £4,000 for projects developed by young people and supported by third sector organisations. If you have young people with inspirational ideas, this could be the time to get them going!.
