A new fund for Youth Work in Radyr & Morganstown

Radyr and Morganstown Community Council has launched a new Youth Fund.  The fund is offering grants of up to £1,000, during 2017/18, for organisations working with children and young people in Radyr and Morganstown.  The Council hopes that organisations working with children and young people will find the fund of some assistance as they continue to develop their services and activities for children and young people.  The fund is operated on a first come, first served basis, so early applications are encouraged.
