The BCP Youth Fund is a fund for young people managed by a panel of young people.

A pot of £25,000 is available to local charities, business, statutory services and voluntary organisations.

Groups can apply for funding to support initiatives that directly impact young people in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole, offering them exciting opportunities and new experiences.
