The Big Lottery Fund’ Grants to Organisations strand of the Young People’s Fund 
programme in England will come to end this summer. Organisations still wishing to
apply have until Friday 14 July 2006 to submit their outline proposal forms, giving
the basic information about the project.

The last awards to voluntary organisations working with young people between the
ages of eleven and 25 years old from the Grants to Organisations strand will be 
made in December 2006.

The key consideration for all applications is that young people are involved at 
all stages of project development, from planning to evaluation.

When launched in 2004 as part of the Young People’s Fund, Grants to Organisations
aimed to distribute £40 million of lottery funds to groups working with young people
in England.

Phase 2 of the Young People’s Fund will open for applications in 2007 and will continue
to support innovative projects led by and for young people in England. The Fund 
will make available £81 million to help support local, regional and national projects
that improve local communities and offer more opportunities to young people.

£19 million will go towards the final roll out of the School Sport Co-ordinators
programme that facilitates sports partnerships working together to improve children’s
health and self-esteem, as well as building sporting and social skills through group
activities.
