Your County - Putting Kent First

Kent 4 star Council

Young People's Fund

The Young People's Fund is designed for Young people who need small amounts of money to achieve a personal goal, e.g. money towards equipment, short courses, trips or other events that help with personal development.

It is available to anyone aged between 11 and 25 that lives within Kent County Council boundaries and is unable to fund the full amount of the application themselves.

PLEASE NOTE THAT GROUP APPLICATIONS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED

Grants are usually between £25 and £75 and would be a contribution towards the total cost and may be less than the amount you ask for.

The Panel meets every two months and applications must be made at least 4 weeks before the date of your project. Grants will not be given after the event or activity has taken place.

The Panel will not give grants towards: Smiley Face

Ongoing commitments

  • Top-up grants for full-time college/education courses
