The Phoenix Way – Children And Youth Round

Grants of up to £50k are available for not-for-profit organisations, and charities across England and Wales to deliver projects and activities that work with Black and racially minoritised children and young people to prevent and reduce violence.

This fund aims to support organisations and groups that are working with Black and racially minoritised children and young people to prevent or reduce violence in their communities and lives. 

In the current round of funding, priority will be given to support children and young people with the highest risk factors of becoming involved with serious violence.

Groups may work with children and young people who are impacted by systemic issues and structural disadvantages, such as those with experience of:

• The care or youth justice systems.
• Abusing or misusing substances
• Abuse, maltreatment, or neglect.
• Negative educational experiences such as exclusion,
• Trauma.
