Ten of the 15 who started stayed to the end; they wrote the call for proposals, set the criteria, visited shortlisted applicants and made seven grants. Covers how the pilot was designed with Fully Focused Community Trust and YouthBank International, and lessons on recruitment, drop-out, costs such as childcare, and assessment.
