What are Jack Petchey Awards?

The Jack Petchey Foundation, established in 1999, gives grants to programmes and projects that benefit young people aged 11 - 25. The Foundation is eager to help young people take advantage of opportunities and play their full part in society.

Grants are given through different programmes including: Achievement Award Scheme, Leader Award Scheme, Projects Grants and Sponsorship.

Grants of over £20 million have been given since the Foundation was established in 1999 (grant budget for 2006 - over £7m). The Foundation is expanding rapidly.
