The call encourages proposals addressing a range of mental health conditions.

Funding of £50,000 to £150,000 is available for projects 6 to 12 months in duration.

i4i CYPMH operates a two stage application process:

  • Stage 1 – Expression of Interest
  • Stage 2 – 15 page (maximum) Full Application and a 3 minute video pitch

The submission deadline for applications is 1pm on 14 September 2021.
