How to apply

SYP Trust offers small grants to organisations working with young people (with a preference for ages 11-18) in Greater London. We will consider projects that focus on improving the lives of young people through:

• access to learning and employment

• living a healthy, active life

• giving a voice to their situation and a say in the decisions that impact their lives

Type of grants

• We typically give in the region of £5-10k per grant and will deliver two funding rounds per financial year.

• Applications can be for project-based work and ideally where we are the sole or main funder, or where our grant will leverage grants of a similar size from other sources.

• Applicants may include a contribution to their overheads within the budget they submit.

• Grants will typically be for a defined period or project, however we are looking to grow relationships with charities who closely align with our priorities and your initial application will not preclude you from applying for further funding.
