Funding for projects to improve the mental health of young women aged 16 to 25 years old in the North East or North West of England, Yorkshire and Humber or Northern Ireland.
Now in its third year, the Pilgrim Trust’s five-year, £5 million Young Women’s Mental Health Grant Programme is open to applications from UK registered charities with an annual income of between £100,000 and £1 million, have been operating for at least three years and whose work or project is located in the North East or North West of England, Yorkshire and Humber or Northern Ireland.
The grants are for organisations that increase young women’s access to high quality, age and gender specific mental health services.
Grants of £60,000 to £90,000 spread across three years are available to support project delivery costs and core costs (e.g., salaries or general running costs). It is expected that between 10 to 12 projects will be supported.
To apply for funding, charities must first book a telephone conversation with the Trust’s Grants Manager to discuss their potential application. An application form will only be sent after this conversation has taken place.
The ‘book a conversation’ form is now available until 16 June 2023. Applications cannot be made without having this conversation.
