Our project would enable us to offer free football for all of our youths as we restart training. Parents/carers could bring existing and new players without financial worry, knowing their child/ren would reap all of the benefits of exercise, having fun, learning a skill and being part of a team.

We are the Environment & Climate Change Action Group for Dumfries & Galloway Youth Council and we’re applying for funding to cover the costs of training and team-building opportunities that’ll help us be effective in our role. Young people across D&G are worried about their future and the future of our area, country, and planet. The mental and physical well-being of young people and the issues facing our environment are linked and we are applying for funding for training that’ll help us support young people in our communities.
