Available to music projects providing music-making activities to children aged 0-18, Youth Music will be launching their new funding programme on 30 June 2009.

Grants for between £5,000 and £30,000 will be available to projects running for 6 - 24 months. The fund will be available to projects that provide structured, regular and progressive music-making activities for children and young people in support of Youth Music’s 3 goals of working with Early Years, Children and Young People in Challenging Circumstances and Encouraging Talent
To be eligible, projects will need to work with children and young people aged 0-18 years (or up to 25 if they have special educational needs, disabilities or are in detention) and children and young people will be at the heart of the decision making for all projects

The fund will support and promote innovation, partnership working and workforce development.
