The Big Boost wants to hear from young people who are keen to get involved in their communities. The awards help young people set up and run projects that we hope will make a lasting difference to them as well as to the areas they live in. A Big Boost Award is cash plus the support to help young people make their ideas a reality.
Funded by the Big Lottery Fund, the programme awards grants of between £250-£5,000 to help individuals and small groups of people aged between 11-25, deliver projects in their local areas.
It aims to reach young people from all backgrounds, to help them set up and run projects that will make a lasting difference.
The programme will support a wide range of ideas, from ideas developed at school through to larger scale, community projects (examples may range from a counselling helpline for young people, to a youth magazine, which raises awareness of racism).
