PRISM has historically been able to sustain and develop its current projects with a combination of funding and generated income from school referrals.
PRISM’s current principal funding sources are:
• Grants – City of Bradford Metropolitan Council • Fees – Bradford Education, Individual Schools
As the pandemic has had such a devastating impact on the lives of young people we are currently seeking new funding to incorporate more fun and supportive youth work provision across our three centres.
Covid19 has had a significant effect in areas of deprivation in Bradford, this includes the practical impact – lower employment, less income and food poverty which effect the whole family. It also includes the social and mental impact. The pandemic has put a huge strain on many young people who were already struggling with their mental health, because of traumatic experiences, social isolation, poverty, drugs misuse, loneliness, anxiety, a loss of routine and a breakdown in formal and informal support.
If you can support us by funding some of our work we would be delighted to hear from you. Please contact us at info@prismyouthproject.org
We are forever grateful to all our funders over the past 21 years who have enabled so many young people to learn new skills, have fun, improve their mental health and achieve their full potential.
