Dear Church Youth Workers / Leaders,
 
Did you know that there is funding available for community / young people's activities in every area of Bristol?
 
Every local Neighbourhood Partnership has a small wellbeing fund which any resident or local organisation can apply to for funding for youth work or community activities that will benefit the local community.
 
This fund could be accessed particularly to fund local youth groups for resources and equipment, trips, activities or even camps. Please note it is unlikely the Partnerships will fund activities which are overtly evangelical (such as taking young people to festivals like Soul Survivor or funding specific worship events) as the small print for each fund says that the grants are not given for "promotion of political or religious activity." 
 
The wellbeing fund is there so that NPs can invest in improving local communities, so where you need resources for activities with local young people, it is definitely worth applying!
 
I attach all available information on each Neighbourhood Partnership's priorities and closing dates for funding. Some NPs have not published this information, so you may need to contact them directly using the website below for further info and application forms. I also attach some tips for applying for funding, which I hope will be helpful.
 
To apply for funding, go to www.bristolpartnership.org/neighbourhood-partnerships and select your local partnership. Most have application forms, guidelines and their contact details available on their website pages.
 
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
 
 
Many thanks,
