Mental Health Scale Up Fund

“Children and young people who have good mental health are more resilient, more likely to have positive relationships, are physically healthier, achieve more educationally and have better social outcome.”

This Fund Will

  • Grow and develop programmes that work on young people up to the age of 30

  • Provide funding of up to £50,000 per year for up to 5 years

  • Make help available to all who need it in Surrey, when they need it

  • Give long-term wrap-around support, that grows with the needs of young people and their families

  • Support community groups, charities, and other members of the VCSE sector

We’re Looking For

  • Projects which demonstrate clear, measurable impact in young people

  • Scalable projects that can increase in number and reach

  • Beneficiaries in cohorts that are experiencing mental health challenges

  • Beneficiaries that struggle to access support

We’re here to listen.

The Community Foundation for Surrey commissioned a listening exercise to hear from stakeholders, to learn how to better support young people’s mental health.
