Local Youth Clubs Grant Scheme
The Local Youth Clubs Grant Scheme, funded under the Department of Education and Science, makes provision for the support of youth work activities at local level. The scheme provides a source of direct funding for individual youth clubs and groups. While the scheme is open to all those involved in the provision of youth work services at a local level, it is intended that disadvantaged and marginal groups will be the priority target, with further priority being given to young people between the ages of 10 and 21 years.
There are two broad headings under which funding can be sought:
| Youth Grants | designed to aid the ongoing costs of youth clubs and groups. |
| Special Youth Grants | once off grants to aid special youth work initiatives, especially those aimed at disadvantaged young people. |
