Grant News
Youth Music has announced that round 11 of its NextGen Fund will re-open for applications on the 10th January 2025.
The fund supports emerging musicians and behind-the-scenes creatives aged 18-25 (and under-30s who identify as d/Deaf or Disabled) from across the UK to launch a creative project, idea or business.
Grants of up to £2,500 are available to help people, including singers, songwriters, producers, DJs, managers, and agents, who lack the financial means to invest in themselves, start a record label, launch a single, or provide a platform that supports underrepresented voices.
Funding can also cover costs related to career development, audience development, marketing, equipment and software, and business development.
In addition, Youth Music offers support to applicants who identify as disabled through the Application Access Fund. This fund covers any additional access costs that might be required to apply to one of Youth Music’s main grant funds.
The closing date for applications will be the 7th February 2025.
