Created in partnership between Esme Fairburn foundation, Team Hudl, Leeds Community Foundation and The Youth Association – the fund aims to address key challenges faced by young people across Barnsley and Wakefield and has been made by the young people on the panel!

Young people have been on a journey over the last year, taking part in training and research into communities to create their own fund to distribute out to organisations in Wakefield and Barnsley. The journey has been incredible to see, proving that when young people are given control they will do amazing things!
