Ballinger Trust: Children and Young People

Grants are available to organisations supporting children and young people (aged 0 to 19 / 25 SEN) throughout the North-East, supporting their health, development and well-being.

Priority is given to organisations:

• who are working within a community experiencing disadvantage, and
• who are based in the heart of that community, and
• who have open access, long term, open-ended relationships with their young people

They award grants only to organisations delivering a wider range of general youth activities, meaning grants are not awarded to organisations with a narrower focus, such as the arts or sport. 

Please note that we do not support uniformed groups or school-based projects.
