‘The Young People’s Fund Presents: A Briefing on Violence Affecting Young People’ is for organisations applying for The Young People’s Fund, organisations that work in partnership and are interested in working in partnership with a Housing Associations’ Youth Network (HAYN) member (including Peabody), and organisations that respond to violence affecting young people.

About The Young People’s Fund

For the second year, Peabody Community Foundation (PCF) is offering the Young People’s Fund to support grassroots community groups who are putting youth voice at the centre of their work to tackle violence affecting young people.

Peabody have worked with young people aged 11-25 across London to develop a fund which is designed by, owned by and for the benefit of young people. These consultations led to the development of The Young People’s Fund.

Peabody will be awarding grants ranging from £3,000 to £10,000 to organisations working with young Peabody residents and the wider community to address the issue of violence affecting young people in the boroughs of Westminster, Southwark, Waltham Forest, Lambeth and Hackney. Young people must meaningfully participate in the development and design of the project or service that will respond to the issue of violence affecting young people.

Peabody will be holding this event in cooperation with LCF and our young people panel.
