Introducing the Voluntary Youth Work Organisations Support Scheme (VYWOSS), a new initiative aimed at providing funding to voluntary youth work organisations in Wales. The scheme has been established in response to the cost-of-living crisis and other related challenges that have impacted young people’s access to support services.

With a total funding of £180,000 available in the 2023/24 period, the VYWOSS will be split into two rounds of funding. The first round will open in May 2023, and the second round will open in October 2023. Successful applications can receive up to a maximum of £7,500 in funding.

Eligible organisations for the VYWOSS include voluntary sector youth work organisations operating within a maximum of two local authority areas in Wales, providing youth work support to young people based on the principles and purposes of youth work as outlined in Youth Work in Wales: Principles and Purposes – CWVYS. Organisations that have received funding from the Strategic Voluntary Youth Work Organisation Grant (SVYWO) or work in more than two local authority areas will not be eligible to apply.

The funding from VYWOSS can be used for various costs and activities, such as covering operational and utilities costs to open or remain open for young people, covering staff and volunteer costs for service delivery, and providing support to young people to address current challenges, such as hot food and drinks.

To register your interest, please fill in the application form and contact CWVYS via Amanda@cwvys.org.uk
