Funding opportunity: The Health Foundation’s new programme on emotional support for young people

Posted 2022.04.21

The Emotional Support for Young People programme is an open call, available to suitably qualified and experienced research teams based in the UK (although individual members may be based abroad).

Successful teams will receive funding of between £100,000 and £200,000, over 12–18 months, to complete research projects focused on at least one of the following priority areas: 

  • understanding the role played by family relationships, and hence the emotional support experienced by young people, as part of the wider determinants of health 
  • understanding the specific impact of family members’ working lives on the emotional support that young people experience from their families.

Applications are encouraged from multidisciplinary teams combining expertise from a broad range of disciplines, including social psychology, sociology and other social sciences. 

Information call (sign up by email): Wednesday 27 April 2022 (13:00 - 14:00)

Close of the call for proposals: Monday 6 June 2022 (12:00 noon)
