Summary

This funding is specifically to provide free activities for children and young people aged 5 -16 in Dumfries and Galloway. The programmes should enhance equity by widening opportunities for children from low income families to play, socialise, get active and access a range of activities that broaden their experiences, supplement their learning and deliver positive outcomes and integrating food provision wherever possible and be focussed on children and young people within our priority groups.

All activities funded must:

• Be FREE for all children and young people up to the age of 16 (Up to 25 for care experienced young people)- funding cannot be used to subsidise costs.
• Be developed alongside children and young people- you should involve children & young people in co-designing the project.
• Be targeted at children and young people within one of the priority groups: Lone parent families; families which include a disabled adult or child; larger families; minority ethnic families; families with a child under one; families where the mother is under 25 years of age.

All applications will be scored by a panel including children and young people who have the power to decline any application that they feel does not provide the right type of activity.
