Guidelines for Grant Applications

South Kilburn Youth Board has a budget of £15,000 to spend on improving the lives of young people in the South Kilburn area.

Here are some guidelines if you are interested in applying for a grant.

Applications must be filled by young people who are resident in South Kilburn
All application must be supported by an existing organisation who can take receipt of the grant as funding cannot be given to individuals
Group applications for projects must be organised and led by young people although sponsoring organisations (e.g. youth clubs) can help
Your application must benefit young people in South Kilburn and you will have to show how it can make a difference to their lives
You can apply for grants up to £3000
Grants above this limit may be approved in exceptional circumstances
However grants that cover other theme areas, for example the environment, will also be looked at.
Grants will be given to new not existing projects
All applicants will have to be interviewed by members of the Youth Board
Funding is available for projects that the Youth Board feel reflects the vision of the NDC: ‘Creating a desirable place to live, learn and work’.

The Youth Board will be monitoring any grants awarded. They will expect all applicants to provide a budget as part of the application process and receipts when the project is completed. Grants will be considered every 2 months.
