Clock ticking on CVS grants
12:38pm Thursday 20th November 2008
Time is running out for young campaigners to 'grab a grant' for their school, from the UK's biggest volunteering charity CSV.
Teachers and students from secondary and special schools have only until 5 December 2008 to secure a 'Crick Challenge Award', and with it funding of up to £500 to support campaigns, led by young people, that bring about powerful change - locally or globally.
In the past, we've seen students tackle problems as broad ranging as builiding on floodplains to the lack of fair trade goods in shops.
We hope our awards will drive young people into positive action.
