We want to fund work that is:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; people-led \u2013 meaningfully involving the young people you\u2019re working with in the development, design and delivery of your activity<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; strengths-based \u2013 making the most of, and building on, the skills and experiences of young people and assets within communities<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; connected \u2013 having a good understanding of what others are doing locally, developing good working relationships and complementing and adding value to other relevant activity in your area.<\/p>\n<p>How has Young Start changed?<\/p>\n<p>We re-opened Young Start in August 2018 after taking some time to review and reshape the fund.<\/p>\n<p>During this time we\u2019ve made some changes to Young Start based on feedback from applicants, grantholders and the wider youth sector.<\/p>\n<p>The biggest changes are that we will now fund projects for up to three years, and we have raised the maximum grant size to \u00a3100,000, though we are keen to spread our funding as best we can so we still expect to fund many projects below the maximum amount. We\u2019d also like to talk to you about your ideas before sending you an application form, and over time we\u2019re aiming to involve young people more in how we deliver this funding.<\/p>\n<p>For more information goto:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tnlcommunityfund.org.uk\/funding\/programmes\/young-start\">https:\/\/www.tnlcommunityfund.org.uk\/funding\/programmes\/young-start<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Location: All Scotland<\/p>\n<p>For further information, please contact <a href=\"mailto:advicescotland@tnlcommunityfund.org.uk\">advicescotland@tnlcommunityfund.org.uk<\/a> or visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tnlcommunityfund.org.uk\/funding\/programmes\/young-start\">https:\/\/www.tnlcommunityfund.org.uk\/funding\/programmes\/young-start<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The deadline is Tuesday 31 March 2020 at 23:59.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Through Young Start we are offering funding from \u00a310,000 to \u00a3100,000 to help children and young people across Scotland become more confident, so they can realise their own potential Through Young Start we are offering funding from \u00a310,000 to \u00a3100,000 to help children and young people across Scotland become more confident, so they can realise [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-3157","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-musicians","7":"entry"},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/projects.handsupfortrad.scot\/distil\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3157","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/projects.handsupfortrad.scot\/distil\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/projects.handsupfortrad.scot\/distil\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/projects.handsupfortrad.scot\/distil\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/projects.handsupfortrad.scot\/distil\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3157"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/projects.handsupfortrad.scot\/distil\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3157\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3158,"href":"https:\/\/projects.handsupfortrad.scot\/distil\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3157\/revisions\/3158"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/projects.handsupfortrad.scot\/distil\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3157"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/projects.handsupfortrad.scot\/distil\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3157"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/projects.handsupfortrad.scot\/distil\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3157"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
