LandAid Routes Out of Homelessness Grants Programme (UK – Various Regions) - Deadline: 23rd February 202
17 January 2024
The help tackle homelessness in the UK, LandAid, a charity that brings together the property industry, to support charities that work towards ending youth homelessness is re-opening its Routes Out of Homelessness Grant Programmes on 8th January 2024. The grants will be made available to charities and other not-for-profit organisations to create new bedspaces for young people aged 16 to 25 who are or have been homeless. The Routes Out of Homelessness grant are awarded via three programmes, each designed to create additional bedspaces of different types: • the Safe Places programme provides short and medium-term bedspaces in volunteer or paid households for emergency housing
, • the Capital Grants programme funds bedspaces owned or leased by not-for-profit organisations, including new builds, renovations, and other innovative capital projects,
• The Move-On Grants programme assists young people facing barriers in accessing rental accommodation as they move into independent living. The fund is particularly interested in projects that will create bedspaces that:
• Are based in the North-East, Scotland, Wales, or Northern Ireland,
• Are for groups of young people who may be disproportionately at risk of homelessness, such as young people of colour, young refugees, and young people identifying as LGTBQ+,
• Which would be transformational to the charity and/or local area. Partnership applications are welcomed.
The application process is in two stages: Applicants will initially have to submit an Expression of Interest. Those organisations successful at this stage will then have until the 23rd February 2024 to submit a full application.
