What is a Young People in the Lead team?
At The National Lottery Community Fund, we have big plans for 2020 as we work to make sure that young people’s voices are included in all our work, whether it’s through the grants we make, the people we influence or the things we learn.
To do this, we need a dynamic team of young people to work closely with the Head of Youth Voice and partner with us throughout 2020. Please look at the role description for further information on what the role would entail.
About our approach
We strongly believe that when people are in the lead, communities thrive. National Lottery funding is open to everyone and we’re privileged to be able to work with the smallest of grassroots groups right up to large UK-wide charities.
You can find out more about us, how we work and the people and projects we fund at our website. Come and join us as a volunteer to be a part of the change for young people.
As part of a team of young people, you will decide what work to focus on for the year ahead and how it should be achieved. You’ll receive support and guidance from our staff as part of a tailored training package which will develop your skills and experience.
Since 2017, we have awarded over £170 million to projects that support young people. Through our network of funding teams based in communities and publicly available data, we have become aware of an increase in a number of the different issues directly affecting young people.
Through your work, The National Lottery Community Fund will meet these issues head on with the aim of steering significant and positive change in communities.
