Change Ur Future Now

The Big Lottery Fund has £10.8 million available in Northern Ireland, to support projects, that:

• focus on young people up to 25 years’ old
• last up to five years
• target resources at those young people at greatest risk of exclusion or offending.
• involve young people in designing, deliverying and evaluation of the project.

There is a two-stage application process. First, applicants have to fill in an outline proposal form. At the proposal stage, they ask applicants to set out their project outcomes, describing how their projects will make a difference and improve young people’s lives. They also want to know how young people have been involved in planning the project and will be involved in running and evaluating it.

The first deadline for outline applications is approaching.

Outline Proposal First Deadline 27 February 2006.
