Preston Youth Zone has been awarded a £6.2million Youth Investment Fund grant to build the new state-of-the-art youth centre.
Preston Youth Zone is being delivered by national charity OnSide, in partnership with Preston City Council and the Towns Fund who will be contributing towards building and running costs. The Youth Investment Fund grant will also go towards the Youth Zone’s site preparation and pre-opening costs. Other key supporters of the project include the Eric Wright Charitable Trust.
Preston Youth Zone is one of 43 youth services in England to benefit from the first wave of Youth Investment Fund grants, announced by the funder, the Department for Culture, Media and Sport and the charity Social Investment Business, who is delivering the grant programme in partnership with Key Fund, National Youth Agency and Resonance.
Guy Topping, Chair of Preston Youth Zone said: “This is a huge deal for Preston Youth Zone, the partnership behind the project and Preston’s young people, as we now have all of the funds to cover the building costs and can turn our attention to fundraising the remainder of the running costs. This major investment will provide young people with incredible opportunities to find their voice, increase their confidence and gain new skills.
