Through the Winter Fund Grants, Youth Scotland supported STV Children’s Appeal and the Scottish Government to disperse funds to children, young people and their families who are affected by poverty and experiencing hardship. The fund has run in winter 2020/21 and 2021/22.

The fund addressed basic needs in our community, such as food, clothes, fuel, toiletries and basic household essentials that meet the immediate material needs of the most vulnerable children and young people.
