Our proposal is particularly aimed at marginalised groups such as young people with additional support needs and disabilities, LGBT young people and care experienced young people who experience poverty, discrimination and are the most excluded from opportunities. We want to work with existing youth group to provide additional help with offering free nutritious food, to create new experiences and offer opportunities to improve life skills, increase levels of engagement and ultimately lead to volunteering roles within peer groups. 

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. 

Kirkcudbright Youth Project will soon be setting up in our new permanent youth space in the newly renovated Johnston Centre. From here we will continue to provide a safe space for young people as well as providing structured evening sessions focusing on fun, laughter and provision in line with the needs of the young people. We also hope that partner organisations like issue-based youth groups currently operating will be able to share the new facilities and make best use of resources if this application is successful. 

Our project is all about making mental health resources available and accessible to young people to ensure that they have help and support when they need it the most. Our mental health packs aim to support young people’s mental wellbeing.

The drive in movie event will be an event that will be able to go ahead with all social distancing recommendations in place. Young people will be able to attend with their families at no cost and watch a movie on the big screen in our local park. The event planning, preparation and delivery will be done by a team made up of volunteers and young leaders who are aged 12 - 25.

This project will bring young people, aged 12-17 together, socially, over the winter months to take part in a range of fun and safe activities.  The aim of the project is to reconnect young people to their community and wider friendship circles after a long period of social isolation, heightened anxieties and uncertainty during the Covid-19 Pandemic.  We aim help young people feel included, energised, motivated, confident and safe!

The Hub Club is a weekly youth Group in Annan for young people ages 12 – 25 years with extra support needs and disabilities who take part in a variety of activities and projects. We would like to take our young people away on an opportunity of a lifetime.  We would like to take them to Calvert Lakes Disability Outdoor Centre in Keswick for a 2 night stay in October 2012. 

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.
