Application review

Thank you to everyone who has submitted an application!

All applications are checked by volunteer community reviewers, who read all applications to ensure they meet the relevant 'Essential Criteria' and 'What We Will Not Fund'. Any applications that don't meet the criteria will not progress to the vote. 

We may contact you during this period to confirm information or ask for additional information, so please keep checking your inbox (and junk/spam folders!) just in case. 

All applicants will be notified via email once the status of their application has been confirmed.

How to vote

Youth PB voting is restricted to young people only, and you'll be able to vote at school or in another youth space using either your Young Scot number (as your username and password), or temporary login information shared by a teacher or North Ayrshire Council worker. To cast your vote:

  • Log in to the site
  • Select the locality (the area) that you live  in below. You will only be able to vote in one area, so make sure you click on the right one!
  • Each locality has a funding pot allocated based on population. Your vote will determine how this funding is distributed between the projects in your area.
  • Review all of the projects in your area to decide which three you would most like to see funded.
  • To cast your vote, select your favourite three projects from the list in your locality and click 'Submit Ballot'.
