Comic Relief

This funding opportunity aims to support organisations that work to empower young people who are at immediate risk of, or experiencing homelessness to access the right support at the right time.

Through this funding programme, they will provide flexible, core funding to organisations which do both of the following:

• Specialise in the provision of holistic support to young people aged 16-25 in the UK, who are at immediate risk of, or experiencing homelessness. Support services should be tailored, inclusive and accessible, to remove barriers and better meet the multiple and diverse needs of young people at immediate risk of or experiencing homelessness. This work could be delivered by the applicant alone or in partnership.

• Meaningfully involve young people with lived experience of homelessness, or who have been at risk of homelessness. This should include involving young people in the development of the organisation’s work and priority areas, and/or in the running of the organisation.

This fund is for UK based organisations with an annual income of £250,000 to £10m.

You’re welcome to apply for up to £200,000, for a funding period of 3-5 years. Deadline is 3pm on 7th May 2025.
