Young K&C Training Mircogrant
The Training Microgrant supports organisations to invest in their people and strengthen their capacity to deliver excellent services for children and young people. Grants of up to £1,000 are available to fund training, learning and professional development that will directly enhance service delivery.
Applications will be considered on a rolling basis from August 2026 until the fund is fully allocated. We aim to notify applicants of a decision within 4 – 6 weeks of receiving a completed application.
What can the grant be used for?
Funding can be used to cover the cost of training, conferences, seminars or learning resources for staff, trustees and volunteers in the following areas:
- Governance and leadership (e.g. financial governance, HR, strategic planning)
- Fundraising (e.g. bid writing, social media)
- Monitoring and evaluation (e.g. storytelling, data collection, impact reporting)
- SEND training (e.g. ASD training, challenging behaviour, supporting parents, or purchase of related resources)
- Youth and play practice development
- Digital skills and AI training
- Essential or required training for core delivery (e.g. safeguarding, first aid, mental health first aid)
We may also consider other training needs where a satisfactory justification is provided. If you are unsure whether your training is eligible, please contact us before applying.
