Grant News
Funding is available to registered charities and not-for-profit organisations in England and Wales to help young people from low-income backgrounds overcome poverty and disadvantage.
The Skinners’ Charity Foundation awards grants of up to £10,000 per year for up to three years through their Young People’s Vocational Development Charities Programme, to help young people who are not in employment, education or training (NEET) to move into employment or become employment ready.
The programme supports projects that help young people improve their life chances by attaining a vocational qualification and assisting them in moving into work.
Priority will be given to organisations in London and Kent.
Projects operating in partnership with other local organisations are encouraged.
To be eligible, organisations must have an annual turnover of less than £1 million.
Applicants should email the Foundation with a short outline of their proposed project. Eligible organisations will be invited to apply in full by 30 January 2026.
