| Description | Grant file containing correspondence, minutes, agendas, grant overviews, annual reports, leaflets, project proposals and funding requests relating to the United Evangelical Youth Project (UEYP). Funding source(s): Barrow and Geraldine S. Cadbury Trust. Applicant overview: In 1973 Reverend J.B. Corbett set up the Central Bible Institute (CBI) to enable local people in the Aston/Handsworth area to receive training so that they would be more effective in meeting the needs of the area through their ministry. It also became clear that there was a need for the churches to try and meet some of the very pressing social needs that exist in the Aston/Handsworth area, particularly among young people. This recognition gave rise to the UEYP and dedicated staff to address pressing social needs. UEYP provides supplementary education, career guidance and counselling, hostel accommodation, summer camps and home/school liaison work. Nature of support: In 1987 the Trust approved a single grant of £500 to the UEYP plus £3,000 for administrative costs. Minutes: B&GSCT 6728. Notes: File organised from newest to oldest. File numbered '3/7/3'. |
