Winsford Youth & Comminity Forum work are a charitable organistation established since 1969 who work with and on behalf of children, young people and adults throughout Winsford and the surrounding area by providing activities, projects, facilities and services to encompass the whole of the local community. The project is being delivered to provide a safe place for young people to go on a Saturday night, this is to some extent a diversionary project and will support young people into building meaningful relationships. The aim of the project is to provide young people with a warm dry secure place to go that supports confidence and motivation and enables young people to make positive choices including gaining more softer outcomes such as communication, problem solving and reliability. The grant funding will be used to eliver the project and pay for venue hire, professional staffing costs, food, resources, Covid cleaning and PPE. The anticipated Saturday Night project will impact on the lives of young people but will also address a number of challenges that are currently being presented these include:violence, verbal abuse, harrassment, vandalism, anti social behaviour, street drinking, drug dealing, explotation and radicilisation.

Monies raised over a 9 month period would then be used by those y.people to deliver one or more community projects of their choice.

Winsford Youth and Community Forum, formed in 1981 is supported by a multi agency partners group to deliver additional activities/facilities for young people in Winsford. They operate/manage 2 youth clubs, from a Community Centre and a Marina ( water sports ) plus deliver summer/school time Playschemes. They recently changed our name/constitution to include Community - so are now working with all ages, within both centres. Four years ago they took control on a temp licence of one youth centre due to be demolished and have refurbished and repaired this and put it back into use. The Local Authority have now agreed to support the use/development of the centre and are proposing to asset transfer the building, due to extremely high level of deprivation. This grant will enable the Trustees to employ someone with grant writing/application skills applicable for major funding applications, once the expected long term lease is confirmed, (expected by May 2018 ). From that date the group will be eligible for major funding for completing improvements to the building and supporting infrastructure to help increase income for one or more full time staff members. The grant award is to ensure that the have the capacity to employ someone who has the skills to enable such bids to be successful to take the organisation forward
