🟧The Planet Youth Highland Community Fund is now live!

The Planet Youth Highland Community Funding application for Third Sector Organisations is now open!

This is a really exciting opportunity for the 13 Planet Youth partner communities and it will allow the NHS Highland Health Improvement Team to work closely with Third Sector Organisations across Highland to collaborate and work in partnership to develop and support the Planet Youth model at a local level.

This fund aims to:

Support the delivery of the Planet Youth model in the 13 Planet Youth Highland Partner School cluster communities across Highland.

Enable third sector organisations to employ or allocate a part-time worker (up to 0.2 WTE per school community) to support the function of local Planet Youth Community Action Groups. This is two year funding.

Strengthen community-led, data-informed action planning to improve outcomes for children, young people, and families.

Enhance collaboration between statutory services, third sector organisations, and communities.
