The Children, Young People, Families and Adult Learning Third Sector Fund (the Fund) is being made available by Scottish Government to provide core funding to organisations who improve outcomes for children, young people, families and adult learners through the following policy priorities:

  • Child Poverty

  • Equalities and Wellbeing
  • Family Support

  • UNCRC

The funding also has a particular focus on activities which are associated with prevention and early intervention.
