Youth projects in Richmondshire are being urged to
take up the offer of cash from a local grant scheme.
Over the past five years the Richmondshire
District Youth Council grants scheme has given cash to support a
Parks festival, help fund a youth shelter, buy equipment for youth
clubs, drama groups, scouts, and sports clubs and support outings
for disabled young people.
Now Youth Council members are looking for new
submissions.
However grants will not be given to young
people for personal use, for school projects or projects that have
already taken place or to political groups or activities promoting
religious beliefs.
“We can only offer small amounts of money but
it is a rolling programme so we are open for applications at any
time,” said Max Coates, Chairman.
“We can help everything from festivals and
youth clubs to supporting disabled groups and urge any young person
to look to us for help.”
To apply please email
rdyc@richmondshire.gov.uk. Applications will be considered by
youth council members at their monthly meetings.
