Mediabox Northwest Roadshows

Mediabox on Tour

Northwest teenagers and youth organisations interested in the media are being invited to free roadshows in the Northwest, to hear how they can claim cash for their projects.

Mediabox, a £6 million fund, is for disadvantaged 13-19-year-olds to make media projects about issues that are important to them.

Applications for grants of up to £1,000 can be made by individuals or groups, with organisations that work with young people eligible to apply for up to £80,000.

North West Vision (NWV), the film, TV and digital media development agency for the Northwest, is promoting Mediabox across the region.
