Funding Opportunities

Pounds for Purpose

Pounds for Purpose is a grant program for young people aged 16-26 in Scotland who want to tackle social issues and create positive change in their communities. The program provides up to £500 to help individuals turn their ideas into action, with a focus on projects or businesses that have positive social or environmental impact. The initiative aims to support young people who care about and engage with climate change, poverty, inequalities, and conservation issues. The program is particularly interested in funding ideas that are fully formed and ready to implement, with preference given to those that have the potential to generate income and become social enterprises. Applicants can also access free one-to-one business support through Just Enterprise to strengthen their applications and develop their ideas into sustainable social enterprises. The program operates on a rolling basis, allowing applications at any time throughout the year.
