Audible Grants

Audible are seeking small to mid-sized charities that deliver direct programming to 150 to 300 underrepresented youth ages 12 to 18 outside of formal school settings, in structured, recurring settings such as after school clubs, community centres, and youth development organisations, as well as charities with a specific focus on literacy. Selected organisations will incorporate Audible into their existing programming, creating intentional moments of discovery through workshops, listening sessions, and guided exploration that inspire youth to engage with audio content and sustain that engagement over time, with a minimum of biweekly touchpoints.

What Collaborating Organisations Receive

• Grant funding between £15,000 and £30,000 to support programme design and delivery, determined by programme scope and youth reach
• Access to complimentary memberships for programme participants
• Onboarding support and implementation resources
• A shared metrics framework
• Public recognition as part of Audible's official programme launch
• The intention to grow these into multi-year collaborations with organisations that demonstrate strong engagement and measurable impact

Applications open 18 June 2026 and close 31 July 2026. The process includes two stages: a full proposal submission followed by a 60-minute finalist conversation with the Audible team. Selected organisations will be notified by late August with programming beginning October 2026.
