Role of the supporting adult

In the Pounds 4 Young People scheme, the role of the supporting adult is:

• to help young persons with applying for the fund and making sure their ideas are reflected on the application and their project;
• to sign the service level agreement (SLA) on behalf of young persons liaising with them and outlining details of the SLA before signing;
• to complete the evaluation and case study forms once the project is up and running;
• to keep track of funding schedules and day-to-day financial administration duties. For example sending invoices, keeping receipts and evidence;
• to ensure money is spent within the financial year in accordance to application and the SLA;
• to return any money not spent (money must only be spent for project purposes); and
• to aid or advise applicants in all stages and processes of the application.
