Covid Funding

The Wellbeing Fund is focused on providing funding to organisations that can support people who are facing additional barriers or have increased requirements as a direct result of the coronavirus pandemic. It can fund both immediate and emerging forms of support, from now up to the end of July 2020, reflecting that the context for people and communities may change over that time

This round of funding opened for applications on 8th May 2020. To be considered for funding, applications must be received by noon on 22nd May 2020.

This fund aims to support young people aged 11 to 25. It will support young people who show ambition, enthusiaism and talent in their chosen art form and require some financial support to develop or promote this further. 

Funding may also be awarded to those who face significant barriers to success, such as rural isolation or additional support requirements. 

Deadline: 14 June 2020

Youth Scotland’s Action Fund has been established to help youth groups and youth workers meet the needs of young people in response to the coronavirus. It is a micro grant fund and the maximum amount available per application is £500. Grants must be spent within six weeks of receiving it.
