Primark x UK Youth

Our partnership with Primark is rooted in a shared commitment to creating positive opportunities for young people and strengthening the communities in which they live. By combining **UK Youth’s national reach and expertise in youth work with Primark’s strong community presence and social impact ambitions through its Primark Cares strategy, this collaboration is driving meaningful, local change.

Through the Community Impact Fund, UK Youth and Primark invest directly in grassroots youth organisations based in communities close to Primark stores. This place-based approach provides small, unrestricted grants that enable frontline organisations to respond to local need, sustain vital youth services and extend their reach to more young people.

11 successful grant recipients received funding

£175,000 grants distributed directly to grassroots youth organisations

Over 10,000 young people supported by funded organisations

By backing trusted local providers and investing in long-term community capacity, the fund plays a vital role in ensuring more young people are equipped to thrive and empowered to contribute to their communities.

Thanks to our partnership with Primark, UK Youth has been able to 11 fund grassroots youth organisations across the UK, enabling them to deliver inclusive, life-changing youth work across a range of themes including wellbeing, employability, social action, and skills development.
