Regional Programme
Our Regional Programme invests in youth organisations which support, elevate and empower young people facing or experiencing social injustice. All these organisations embed youth leadership and have a lasting impact in communities across Sussex, Berkshire, Wiltshire, Hampshire and the Isle of Wight.
The Regional Programme closed to new applicants in September 2025, but we continue to support more than forty partners until the end of their funding term and provide opportunities for peer learning.

Centring youth empowerment, their youth services are designed to welcome, educate, and build the leadership and power of young refugees.

Working closely with The Agency of Change, Energise Me empower young people to pitch and pilot an innovative new project in their local community.
