Calling all projects working with young people . . .

Year 2 applications for ReachOut are now open...

 The ReachOut project is funded by The Co-Op Foundation (https://www.coopfoundation.org.uk/youth/), and focuses on working with young people across Wales who are at risk of experiencing loneliness, social isolation and related negative consequences. Our ReachOut hubs deliver a programme of activities and support, including bespoke workshops exploring the theme of youth loneliness in Wales.

For further information on the project to date please visit our website: https://youthcymru.org.uk/reach-out/

 Reach Out is a project that enables young people between the ages of 14 to 25 years old, to reflect on their own experiences of loneliness whilst taking action to address the stigma around the subject. Through this project young people will be able to take real actions to reduce isolation and create more belonging within their communities.

As part of the project your organisation will deliver a minimum of eight loneliness workshops and activities with the assistance of a provided toolkit, with the aim for young people to develop social action projects.

 You will be provided with a budget of £1000 for the project.
 
Submission for applications will be open Monday 3rd February until Friday 21st February 2020.
In the week commencing 24th February, we ask for a telephone conversation to support your application.
