Mayor's Young Londoners Fund

3 mins read Funding
The Mayor's Young Londoners Fund was established in 2018 to help children and young people to fulfil their potential, particularly those at risk of getting caught up in crime.

So far, 179 London projects have been awarded £20m through the first round of funding, covering activities from theatre groups and employability training to football clubs and art sessions.

The second round, launched in May, is to target projects aimed at supporting young people in the capital's high crime areas.

How much is available?

The fund will see £30m made available for projects in local communities.

For round two, organisations can bid for a share of £15m through two different streams: small and medium-sized grants of up to £150,000; and large grants of between £150,000 and £1.5m.

The remaining £15m is being invested to expand existing projects funded by City Hall that support young Londoners. This change has been introduced following round one feedback.
