The Local Youth Transformation Programme (LYTP) is a national pilot funded by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) and delivered by the National Youth Agency (NYA) in partnership with UK Youth, Regional Youth Work Units (RYWUs), Young People Foundation Trusts, and StreetGames.
Gan weithio gyda 12 awdurdod lleol ledled Lloegr, mae'r LYTP yn anelu at ailadeiladu cynnig ieuenctid o ansawdd uchel, sy'n cael ei arwain gan anghenion, ac ailsefydlu arweinyddiaeth leol gref mewn gwasanaethau ieuenctid.
The selected local authorities are Knowsley, Shropshire, Southwark, Oxfordshire, Doncaster, Liverpool, Peterborough, Hartlepool, Derbyshire, Stoke, Cornwall, and Islington. These areas were chosen through a mini-Expression of Interest (EOI) competition, agreed by Ministers to reflect the small size of the pilot and reduce administrative burden. Within each region, local authorities with the highest levels of young people living in families suffering from income deprivation (as measured by IDACI) were invited to submit an EOI. These submissions were then reviewed by DCMS to understand the motivations for participation and the potential benefits for both the local authority and youth provision.

The programme runs until Mawrth 2026 and focuses on nine essential themes including youth engagement, safeguarding, workforce development, use of the NYA Youth Work Curriculum, and quality of youth work practice. It is a unique opportunity to shape the future of youth services and ensure that young people’s voices are central to local decision-making.
