  2. Hi Jennifer,

    myplace is all about supporting youth facilities that will “offer young people the widest possible range of high quality activities and co-located support services”. So you may need to link up with other organisations to cover the range of activities and services necessary for a successful bid to what will be a very competitive funding round.

    Also, you would have to be delivering work in the one third most deprived areas in England, and that meets all four of the programme outcomes: Under this programme, we want to fund projects that will deliver on the following programme outcomes:
    - more young people, parents and communities feel that young people have exciting and safe places to go in their leisure time where they can get involved in an attractive range of activities;
    - more young people, particularly the most disadvantaged, participate in positive leisure time activities that support their personal and social development;
    - more young people have access to information, advice and support services from within places they feel comfortable; and
    - stronger partnership working between local authorities, third, private and public sector partners to plan, deliver and operate financially sustainable youth facilities with and for young people.

    All the guidelines and eligibility information is available on the Big Lottery Fund website - follow the link given in the post.

    Thanks,
    Danny
