GwirVol is a uniquely Welsh, diverse partnership between the private, public and voluntary sectors, designed to promote, support and drive forward youth volunteering initiatives.
As well as providing advisory assistance and signposting services, the partnership will deliver grants, through local grant panels of young people, to encourage youth volunteering projects in their local area.
The scheme provides 'Opportunities' project funding of up to £10,000 for activities that will deliver a wide range of new and innovative volunteering experiences for those aged 16-25. It also offers 'Promotion' project funding of up to £5,000 to encourage volunteering, through promotional events, websites, exhibitions, or visits.
Organisations from the voluntary, public and private sectors located in Wales may apply for advisory and financial support through the scheme.
The second bidding round for 2010, for both the 'Opportunities' and 'Promotion' grants, has opened to applications with a deadline of 24 November 2010.
