Our Inspiring Better Futures vision underpins our commitment to supporting our members and customers, creating an inclusive and diverse work environment and making a real difference in our communities.

Whether it’s offering affordable and accessible products to suit all types of savers, supporting our members with education grants, or giving back to our communities through charity partnerships and volunteering, our vision is at the heart of what we do.

Apply for a Young Person's Education Grant

The costs of education and training can be a barrier to many young people and their families. This is why we offer OneFamily customers the opportunity to apply for a Young Person's Education Grant of up to £250 to help meet these costs, when they would otherwise struggle without financial assistance.

There are two rounds of Young Person's Education Grants per year.

In each round, applications open one month before the draw takes place.

Grants are awarded following a randomised draw.

Terms and conditions apply.

The Young Person's Education Grant application window is currently closed
The next application window will be open between 1 - 31 March 2026.
