CHANGING THE GAME FOR YOUNG PEOPLE
The Peer Action Collective (PAC) is a £11.4 million youth-led peer research and social action programme which aims to understand what is needed to help young people live a life free from violence and put what is learned into action.
PAC is currently being delivered in 4 communities in England from 2025 to 2027 and is funded by the Youth Endowment Fund and the #iwill Fund (a joint investment between The National Lottery Community Fund and the Department for Culture). Previously it received funding from the Youth Endowment Fund, the #iwill Fund and the Co-op Group.
Youth Endowment Fund
The Youth Endowment Fund is a charity with a mission that matters. We exist 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.
#iwill Fund
The #iwill Fund is made possible thanks to £66 million joint investment from The National Lottery Community Fund and the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) to support young people to access high quality social action opportunities.
Co-op
The Co-op is one of the world’s largest consumer co-operatives, owned by millions of members. We’re a recognised leader for our social goals and community-led programmes. We exist to meet members’ needs and stand up for the things they believe in.
