The youth club network has teamed up with volunteering charity v, which is providing the cash, along with MTV and marketing company TomTom Nation to launch Boom!
The project will allow 16- to 25-year-olds to learn and put into practice film production and media skills with the hope of opening up volunteering and vocational opportunities.
Young people will be challenged to make short films ref-lecting their opinions, concerns, interests and passions. Films could range from video diaries to news bulletins and mini-documentaries. Each participating club will have an online newsroom called a Boom! Room in which videos can be uploaded.
The initiative will encourage young people to use their films to create positive outcomes for their communities.
