Livingston Youth Trust is a small trust that provides financial assistance to young people living in Livingston. It can help to give support towards future progress in the chosen fields of the Arts, Sport and Music. The Trust considers general applications from individuals, groups of young people and organisations working with young people and based in Livingston. Such general applications must be clearly presented and have specific benefits for young people. Applications for general subsidy will not be considered. Young people between the ages of 5 to 25 or organisations working with young people between the ages of 5 to 25 with an active interest in a chosen field may apply, where the individuals or organisations are not in a position to develop that interest from their own resources.
The Youth Trust can provide one-off grants where an individual is taking part in educational, cultural and sporting activities or training programmes which are likely to develop or enhance their abilities.
