The Key to Find Your Spark is a new programme designed to help you discover what motivates you, explore your interests, and build the confidence and skills to shape your future. Through fun activities and hands-on projects, you'll create your own "passion project" with support from trained KEY+ Facilitators. It's your chance to try new things, learn more about yourself, and gain the tools to believe in what you can achieve.

KEY+ gives you the chance to take on any project you like - from a team challenge to a fundraising event. Find Your Spark helps you focus on the things you're really interested in, so you can discover what makes you excited and happy. Whether it's music, creative arts, sports, or something else, it's all about exploring your passions and having fun while learning new skills.

Once you have completed your first project.

You - The Key will advertise the bursary opportunity to all those who have taken part in a Find Your Spark project and make the online application form available to you.

The bursary offers up to £500 to help young people continue exploring and developing their passion beyond the initial project. Funding can be used for materials, training, experiences, equipment, or other resources that support their next steps.

As funding is limited, not everyone can receive the full £500. We encourage you to apply for the amount you need, as asking for a smaller amount means we can support more young people.

Yes, you can apply for the bursary more than once, but first time applicants are given priority when decisions are made.

If you're part of the bursary you will also have access to 121 coaching from The Key, to help you make the most of the opportunity and to support you in your future goals.

Yes, the bursary is there to help you continue exploring and developing your passion beyond the initial project.
