About this fund
Asda Foundation recognises the importance of supporting young people in our communities, with a particular focus on their mental health and wellbeing. This year, we will be providing up to £600,000 of funding, focused on supporting ‘Healthy Teen Minds’.
The Healthy Teen Minds programme will provide support to community groups across the UK to help them deliver activities for teenagers which improve mental health and wellbeing and create positive life opportunities.
Grants of £500 to £1,000 are available to grassroots groups supporting teenagers’ mental health and wellbeing.
Applications open: 6th January (10am) – 20th January (10am)*
All key information you will need before applying for this grant can be found here. If you would prefer a downloadable version of the criteria, this can be found here.
*Applications may close earlier if demand is high or if specific regions become oversubscribed. Any changes to this programme will be announced on the Asda Foundation website, social media accounts, and grant management system.
We aim for a fair spread of applications across the UK. Where multiple applications come from the same area, we will select projects that best meet the programme’s aims.
We may reduce applications or remove items that don’t meet criteria or align with programme objectives.
