The Youth Endowment Fund was established in March 2019 by children's charity Impetus, with a £200m endowment and ten year mandate from the Home Office.
We're here to prevent children and young people becoming involved in violence. We do this by finding out what works and building a movement to put this knowledge into practice.
To make a lasting difference we must do more than just fund and evaluate promising programmes to prevent youth violence. We have to make change happen – changing policy and practice – so that children are better supported and violence reduces.
Our insight creator tool has been designed to support leaders like you to reflect on and self-assess practice against our evidence-informed guidance. By deepening our understanding of what works and clearly identifying where we are now, we can make meaningful and sustainable improvements to practice that better protect children from violence.
