Congratulations to the receivers of our 2025 grants!

It’s been a fantastic year yet again, with applications for projects abroad and some more local to home. With the updated application form and grants opened up to all young people of the UK, the breadth of applications has been amazing. It’s always such a difficult process but we have thoroughly enjoyed reading every application and seeing what adventures the young people of the UK are getting up to.

A huge congratulations to the young people below whose applications have been awarded a grant. All receivers have been notified.
