SEND Social Action Grants

Applications are now closed

About the Fund

The SEND Local Offer, Greater Manchester Youth Network (GMYN), and Young Manchester are organisations that have been working together to create more opportunities for young disabled people to do youth voice and youth-led social action.
Youth voice is when young people have a say about things that are important to them and affect their lives, and adults listen to them.
Youth-led social action is when young people work together to make a positive change to a problem they care about.

We have grants available for young people with SEND to do social action projects.

A grant is funding to help pay for the work you are doing.

We are working with some young people called the Changemakers, from GMYN.

They will decide which projects get funding.

Together we want to see:

  • more young disabled people leading their own social action projects
  • young disabled people making decisions about how money should be spent

Applying for Funding

There are different sized grants available. You can ask for these amounts:

  • Small grants between £500 - £750
  • Medium grants between £1000 - £1500
  • Large grants between £2000 - £3000

We've already given out some grants, so there's now about £3,000 left to apply for.

You can download an application form using the 'Download Application Form' button below.
We've updated the deadline for applications to March 31st 2024.

We'll review applications at the start of April, and let you know if you've been successful before the end of April.
