&lt;p&gt;Bristol City Council has set up the Youth Sector Support Fund to support Bristol-based organisations working with local children and young people, aged 8-19 years. This grants programme will support community-based activities that are preventative and focussed on children and young people who may be at risk of adverse outcomes. This can be preventative and early intervention work that addresses:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;•    Risky behaviour – e.g. anti-social, crime and being at risk of criminal exploitation&lt;br /&gt;
	•    Mental health&lt;br /&gt;
	•    Low aspirations&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There may be other challenges in specific areas and communities that require early intervention or preventative work. It’s important you can demonstrate the local need and how the grant will help children and young people at risk of adverse outcomes or reducing these challenges from escalating.&lt;/p&gt;

There are lots of simple ways you can help this happen, and get organised to deal with bidwriting stress! This workshop is for anyone who is new to writing funding bids, or who would like an update or refresher for skills they haven’t used in a while.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We’ll concentrate on looking at smaller, less complex bids. The workshop will cover;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Getting ready to write effective bids.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Tailoring your bid to the funder.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Making a great case for funding.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Getting it all down on paper.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The workshop will be practical and give you plenty of hints and tips to take away.&lt;/p&gt;
