About NextGen Greenwich grants

Grants will fund activities for children and young people who live or attend school in Royal Greenwich and are aged:

  • 5 to 18 years old
  • up to 25 years old if they have Special Educational Needs or Disabilities (SEND), or experience in care

Children and young people:

  • have shaped the funding values and priorities
  • will be involved in developing the programme
  • will assess applications and contribute to decisions

Through positive, fun activities that reflect their priorities, grants will empower children and young people in the borough, supporting them to gain:

  • confidence
  • resilience
  • a sense of belonging

Funding will also:

  • support our mission to strengthen the voluntary, community and faith sector
  • enable organisations to provide quality support to the children and young people most in need
  • include funding for projects that are for young people, and led by them
