Their mission is to inspire and equip young people to learn and succeed through enterprise.
Y.E.S are seeking a grant of £3,000 to enable them to continue providing their ‘Enterprise Life and Work Programme’ for young people, ages 18-25 in Perth Prison.

Future Funding
Having supported a broad range of inspiring and transformational projects over the Foundation’s 30 year history, the Trustees decided to embark upon a strategic review to ensure our grants were having the greatest impact. In 2020 we completed an intensive eight month programme led by Ten Years’ Time and we’re thrilled to be focussing all our efforts now on building Youth Power and Leadership with some fantastic partners.
