Camden Community Wealth Fund’s Youth Fund is open for applications

If you run a business that empowers other young people in Camden, we’d love you to apply to our Youth Fund for investment to grow your business.

Visit CamdenCommunityWealthFund.co.uk/youth-fund. You can apply for a repayable loan (ranging from £20,000 to £500,000) if your organisation meaningfully empowers other young people in any of the following ways:

  • Diversity and inclusion initiatives – e.g. inclusive recruitment policies or anti-racism training
  • Confidence and skills building – e.g. training, tutoring, apprenticeships or mentoring
  • Mental health and wellbeing support – e.g. providing young people with space and community to improve their mental health and wellbeing.

Applications close at 12noon on 30 September and we’ll be reviewing applications throughout this period. 

We will be formally assessing each application and Camden Community Wealth Fund’s fantastic Youth Panel members will play a significant part in that process.

Our Youth Panel are a diverse group of 15 young people who live, work or study in Camden. They have been working with us since January to help us shape the Youth Fund – and they will be reviewing every application to help us decide who receives investment.

Every decision they help to make is guided by their vision for a fairer, more inclusive local economy that works for young people now and in the future.
