About

Youth Music is a national charity that works to equalise access to music for young people across the UK. Over 25 years, they have invested £263 million into grassroots organisations and young creatives, supporting over 5,000 projects since 2009. They raise £10 million annually to fund music projects and provide opportunities for young people to transform their lives through music, fostering creativity, confidence, and resilience in the next generation of artists and leaders. Their work is guided by IDEA principles: Inclusive, Diverse, Equitable, and Accessible music opportunities.

Funding Opportunities

Catalyser Fund

The Youth Music Catalyser Fund offers grants between £30,001 and £300,000 to organisations in England who want to sustain work, scale-up delivery, or create change in sector practice. Catalyser programmes must support children and young people who face barriers to make, learn or earn in music, and aim to make music activity more inclusive so everyone can access it. The work must meet one of Youth Music's themes including Early years, Disabled, d/Deaf and neurodivergent young people, Youth justice system, Young people facing barriers, Young adults, and Organisations and the workforce. A Catalyser programme could involve an experienced youth charity sustaining its successful youth-led music provision, a CIC scaling up a pilot project to reach more young people across a wider geographic area, or an established music charity developing an Early Years network to up-skill practitioners and influence sector practice.
