15 Years of Impact: The CashBack for Communities Youth Work Fund

CashBack for Communities’ Youth Work Fund has changed the lives of over 400,000 young people across Scotland since it began in 2008! Join us for a week of celebration this September.

The CashBack for Communities Youth Work Fund was set up in 2008 to divert and convert the proceeds of crime into life-changing youth work activities in the heart of some of Scotland’s most deprived communities.

Since then, it has gone on to support over 400,000 young people – often those facing the most significant barriers to attainment and wellbeing, as well as those most at-risk of entering the justice system.

While we’re disappointed that the Fund has come to an end, we want to celebrate its fantastic achievements and show decision-makers at every level the positive outcomes that can be achieved when we invest in youth work.

From 18th to 23rd September 2023, we’re launching a week-long celebration of the CashBack for Communities Youth Work Fund, looking back on 15 years of impact, using the hashtag #CelebratingCashBack. We’ll be sharing some jaw-dropping headline figures from across the years, demonstrating the impact of youth work, highlighting case studies and sharing your amazing stories made possible by the Fund.
