We are launching our Live UnLtd Summer of Great Ideas Campaign and are keen to receive applications from any young people who want to set up their own community impact project.

We back people aged 11-21 with cash & support to launch projects that can change their world for the better. Projects can be around any topic/issues that young people are interested in from the arts and sport to the environment or bullying. We have helped support inter-generational projects, start sports clubs, assist art and community projects and helped people start their own sustainable social enterprises.

All projects and enterprises are run by the young people themselves.

Support is available in the form of cash awards starting at around £500 which is used to start projects and pay for equipment etc.
