Within the broad categories above, certain types of schemes have been preferred, for example:

  • Bursaries and allowances for education and training
  • Youth clubs, sports and holiday playschemes
  • Counselling projects which are properly structured
  • Pioneering child care and parental support schemes
  • Youth arts
  • Partnership projects with the local authorities

Support has not been limited to the disadvantaged. There has been an equal concern to encourage talent and 'enable the enabled'.
