You are not alone

If this looks a bit daunting, don’t worry help is at hand. First of all, make sure that you take a look at the application form, the Programme guide (PDF 877KB) and visit the Before you apply section before you get started. On top of that, a list of information providers is available from the Links and downloads section.
 

 

Please note: due to the high demand expected in the last round of the year and limited funding still available, applicants may not be given the opportunity to re-submit any eligibility information found to be missing from applications at Round 3. We strongly recommend you ensure that your application meets the eligibility and award criteria in the 2013 Youth in Action programme guide.
 
Check before you send in your application that: 
 
  • Narrative and financial sections are completed in full
  • Any partner forms are included and signed in original 
  • Your named Legal Representative has signed the application in original
  • A set of accounts and balance sheet is included (if you have received or asked for more than 60k Euros of grants this year)
  • Evidence of your legal status is included (i.e. passport for the named legal representative of informal groups, print out of companies house entry, or details of your public body)
Can we also encourage you to make use of the advice and support available from your nearest Information Provider. You can find further details at contact us
