Focus on Young People in Bassetlaw supports young people through a Grant Giving Trust. Any young person aged eight to 25 who lives in Bassetlaw can apply for a small grant to help them achieve their goals.
The charity can also support local clubs that work with young people of this age.
The criteria and application process are set out at www.foypib.org.uk. Applications are open all year round; the Board of Trustees meet bimonthly to consider all submissions.
For more information contact Development Manager Noelle Barron on support@foypib.org.uk.
