Funding Information

The KFC Youth Foundation is offering grants of up to £3,000 per year for up to two years for youth-focused charities and community interest companies (CICs) across the UK.

Funding is to deliver projects for young people that create safe spaces, offer diversionary activities, and build life skills, to help them feel secure, empowered, and ready for a positive future.

Proposed projects should align with the following priorities:

  • Safe Space – A safe physical and emotional environment with trusted adults or peers, safeguarding, and youth involvement.
  • Diversionary Activities – Activities aimed at reducing risk factors (eg, ASB, exclusion, substance misuse) and delivered at key times for vulnerable youth.
  • Life Skills – Programmes that build independence skills, financial resilience, food education, and employability.

Who can apply?

Grassroots organisations with an annual income of less than £400,000 working with young people aged between 11 and 25 living in areas of high deprivation can apply.

If applications are high, priority will go to organisations located in the top 10% most deprived neighbourhoods, according to the Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD).
