Are you 16-24? Got an idea for a creative project benefitting your community? Want £400 to make it happen?

Great! #CultureMakers provides support and up to £400 funding to young adults aged 16 – 24 years old to run their own creative projects that benefit the community.

Examples of #CultureMakers projects we are currently supporting include:

We know that our #CultureMakers develop huge levels of confidence, learn important employability skills such as budgeting, marketing, leadership, problem solving and project management, alongside making a real contribution to their communities.
