Asda Foundation’s Young Futures Fund is offering up to £600,000 through its Healthy Teen Minds programme with grants of between £500 and £1,000.
The funding is for community groups across the UK to deliver activities for disadvantaged, vulnerable teenagers (13 years to 18 years), helping to improve mental health and wellbeing, and create positive life opportunities.
The funding priorities are:
The grants can be used for a range of project costs, including:
Not-for-profit groups and organisations with an income of below £250,000, who are based and working within the UK, and offering services to support teenagers’ mental health and wellbeing can apply. Examples of eligible groups include (but not limited to) PTAs, amateur sports clubs, uniformed groups and youth clubs.
Applications are encouraged from groups with free to access services that are inclusive to many, as it is unlikely that activities with fees that prevent participation will be supported.
Applicants are advised to apply as soon as possible as the programme may close early if demand is high or if specific regions become oversubscribed.
Applications close 20 January 2026 at 10am.
