Phase 2 of the Early Intervention and Prevention Youth Justice Grants for local based initiatives are now open!

This grants program is a partnership between Youth Justice Reform (Department for Education, Children and Young People) and the Brighton community and commenced in 2024/2025.  The grant funds are held on behalf of the Brighton Alive network and the Brighton community by Brighton Council.

Following the co-design of the Grant Guidelines, Selection Criteria, and Brighton Council’s Asset Based Community Development (ABCD) ‘Open Space’ workshop in November 2025, we will be hitting the ground running for Phase 2.  A workshop will be held on 17 March at the Brighton Alive meeting time (10am-12pm) at the Brighton Civic Centre in Bridgewater.

Some things to note:
– You do not need to have participated in any of the previous work last year.
– You can apply for a grant in Phase 2 if you applied in Phase 1.
– Anyone in the Brighton community can submit an application – including community members.
– You do not need a fully formed idea in order to come to the workshop – in fact you can come with no idea and be open to what you hear on the day
