Realising Ambitions Programme Opens for Applications (UK)

Organisations working with children and young people have the 
opportunity to apply for grants of up to £3 million through the Big 
Lottery Fund’s “Realising Ambitions” Programme.  The programme which is 
run by Catch22 in partnership with the Young Foundation, the Social 
Research Unit, Rathbone and Substance will develop a portfolio of up to 
20 projects that replicate and scale up successful initiatives that 
divert young people away from pathways into offending.

A total of £25 million is available to support projects that work 
predominantly with 8 to 14-year-olds.  Proposals will need to be led by 
a voluntary and community sector organisation, although they can work in 
partnership with both statutory and private sector organisations to 
replicate interventions.

Interested organisations have until 9am on the 10th October 2011 to 
submit their “Expression of Interest” form. For more information:
