v grants to be given to 16 – 25 year-olds for 2012 community projects

If you’ve got an idea for a London 2012 Olympic and Paralympics Games volunteering project to improve your community, you could apply for a grant of up to £2,500 to bring your idea to life at vcashpoint.

To get your brains-whirring Olympic and Paralympics Games themes include: Sport, Health Culture, Education and Environment

To apply for a vcashpoint grant, you must be aged 16-25, live in England, and be up for running the project yourself. You’ll need to show how your project will help other people (not relatives), the environment or your community and how it has been inspired by London 2012.
