Creative Grants
Each year Arts & Minds offer the opportunity for LYPFT services to win up to £1000 each for a participatory project. Projects need to involve patients / service users in the planning so it meets their needs and interests, and can be in any medium: photography, music, crafts, creative writing etc. Your LYPFT service must also contribute at least £100 towards the project to be eligible for a grant. LYPFT services can apply for one Creative Grant each year.
For more information, please download the information about the 2026-27 grants programme: Creative Grant Guidance 2026-27
The grants are only available to LYPFT services. If you are a LUYPFT service and would like to submit an Expression of Interest form, or apply for a Creative Grant, please visit the Arts & Minds Staffnet page (please note, this link will only work from a LYPFT device): Arts and Minds Network
