GROUPS in the East Riding are being urged to apply for grants to help them provide activities for young people.

East Riding of Yorkshire Council’s youth and family support (YFS) service is launching the 2018 Positive Activity Grant (PAG), which can give up to £2,000 for existing or new youth organisations to help deliver positive diversionary activities. Applications for the 2018 scheme will open on November 1, but groups will need to register as an accredited Fit for Purpose group before then. For information contact Detty Tyler on 01482 871077 or detty@ervas.org.uk.
