The Youth Music Trailblazer Fund

The Youth Music Trailblazer Fund, supported by Arts Council England, offers grants of £2,000 to £30,000 to organisations in England to run projects for children and young people (25 or under) to make, learn and earn in music.

Your work must meet one of the themes:

  • Early years
  • Disabled, d/Deaf and neurodivergent young people
  • Youth justice system
  • Young people facing barriers
  • Young adults
  • Organisations and the workforce
