Somerset Youth Bank & Children's Bank

Somerset Youth Bank is an innovative grant making initiative run by young people for young people aged 11 - 19 and up to 25 for those with additional needs, providing small grants to enable individual young people to participate in positive activities.  Youth Bank funding offers grants to young people to enable them to access developmental opportunities which will enable them to learn about and participate in their own communities, to develop new skills; travel and have new experiences.
