DCMS, in partnership with the National Lottery Community Fund, is providing over £2m to OnSide Youth Zones through the Youth Investment Fund (2017-2020). This is supporting the expansion and creation of open access youth services in the Wirral, Wolverhampton and Barking and Dagenham.

Local programmes funded by DCMS and delivered through delivery partners are also delivered in OnSide Youth Zones. For example a money management programme through the Savers Support Fund, programmes through the Sport for Development fund and National Citizen Service local delivery.
