BYPC Health FundDo you have an idea to improve the health of children and young people in Blackpool? Need funding?
Blackpool young people's council and Blackpool NHS are teaming together to commission effective services to improve young people's health in Blackpool.
A sum of £150,000 has been allocated for a group of young people to be in charge of the funding for health promotion for people aged 5 – 19 around six important topics young people face; Smoking, Weight management, alcohol, substance misuse, sexual health and Emotional health and wellbeing.
The process is young person lead with members of Blackpool young people's council and other youth groups making decisions on applications and quality assessing the successful projects.
The project is now in its third and final round, and we want to fund more exciting projects for young people’s health
One young person involved said "it's really exciting to be involved in a project like this; we get to make decisions that will change the lives of our friends and family"
