Story

This global pandemic is a crisis for everyone, but for the vulnerable young people of Birmingham it is especially intense - particularly care leavers, sick and disabled young people and those on zero hours contracts. We have temporarily extended our grant fund to provide small hardship grants to bridge the gap until sickness and unemployment benefits kick in or other support arrives. We are working with our supporter key workers so that this fund is specifically targeted to young people with nowhere else to turn and no other sources of support. The more cash we raise over the next few weeks, the more young people in the city we will be able to help. Please dig deep and help us to support the young people rendered destitute by Covid-19... Thank you.

About the charity

No young person should have their future put on hold because they can’t afford the basics that most people take for granted. That’s why we provide small financial grants for disadvantaged 16 to 25 year olds from Birmingham to support them into work, training or education.
