Nelsonspirit Future Leaders Fund

The Nelsonspirit Future Leaders Fund provides modest grants to Norfolk-based young people aged between 17-24, who want to grow themselves as leaders whilst helping others within a community, creating a positive social impact on a global scale. The Future Leaders Fund is supported by Norfolk's leaders of today – leading businesses and charities based in Norfolk – and is designed to equip the leaders of tomorrow with key leadership skills. To date, there have been over 60 recipients of the grant, and young people have participated in a range of projects both locally and internationally. Recipients must present a short talk about their experience to funders at a Nelsonspirit Leaders meeting after their return, provide images from their project for marketing purposes, and promote the Nelsonspirit Future Leaders Fund. The fund excludes any trips, projects and expeditions that are part of a programme of educational study, such as part of a university course.
