The Holywood Trust

The Holywood Trust is a charitable organisation which aims to help young people in Dumfries and Galloway. It gives grants to individuals and organisations, creating opportunities for young people in the region. The Trust is currently reviewing its priorities, but is particularly interested in: • Providing opportunities for the most disadvantaged and vulnerable young people in our region • Encouraging talented young people in Dumfries and Galloway • Helping improve creative and cultural opportunities across the region • Supporting imaginative and inspirational approaches We focus primarily on young people aged 15 – 25 years. However we will also consider supporting vulnerable younger children for preventative measures in relation to health or social disadvantage, or if the activities are particularly inspirational! The Trust is administered by a Board of Trustees and a professional staff based in Dumfries.

The Holywood Trust is coming to our funding roadshow in Twynholm on Thursday.

The Trust is a charitable organisation, which aims to help young people in Dumfries and Galloway. They want to help young people throughout Dumfries and Galloway fulfil their potential in cultural, educational, personal and social aspects of their lives.

The trust does this by providing financial grants to individual young people and organisations, which support or provide opportunities for young people in the region.

There is also a new application form for Groups Of Young People within an organisation to apply for funding to undertake a project or meet a need.

The key criteria for any application is how the funding applied for will help an individual or group of young people to move forward in their life.

More information is available from their website www.holywood-trust.org.uk
