Revenue & Capital funding
Copeland Community Fund 2019-2022 Strategy continues to prioritise Youth large projects in an annual ‘Call Out’.
The Fund will accept youth projects targeting children and young people from 0 – 19 years (or up to 25 years if the young person has special educational needs and/or a disability). The purpose is to provide revenue and / or capital support to existing provision within Copeland and consider new complementary provision.
- Areas projects may focus on include, but are not limited to:
- Generic youth provision
- Outdoor pursuits
- Creative arts based provision
- Emotional resilience
- Improvement to facilities / equipment
- Projects must demonstrate that they can meet the NDA Socio Economic Policy.
- Organisations can apply for youth projects on an individual basis, however, CCF also looks favourably on collaborative projects.
- Applications to the Fund (with the exception of collaborative projects noted above) require match funding of:
- 50% for projects with a grant request over £25k
- Youth projects will be limited to a three-year funding term.
- Any project wishing to apply should consider how they can achieve the ‘Essential’ output:
- Number of Attendances *(Essential output)
- Local Young People Assisted in their Skills Development
- Number of Youth Volunteer Hours
Exclusions for the Youth Fund include:
- Faith based activities and venues (unless broader community use)
- Residential activities (outside of Cumbria) including expeditions and overseas trips
- Direct replacement of activities which are a statutory obligation
