'Actions Speak Louder...' recognises and celebrates the achievement of young people who have developed youth-based projects in their community.

This Flickr account showcases photos from our awards ceremony at the London IMAX, and includes details of the 15 youth-led projects which each won between £30,000 and £45,000 to expand their positive impacts.

You will also find photos from the winning projects themselves, and from some of the other projects that entered the Actions Speak Louder competition.

If you are aged 13 to 19 and live in England and you are inspired by any of the photos of stories you see here, then you can apply for funding to run a positive project that will make a difference for you and/or other young people in your area. You can find out more on the Youth Funds pages at www.direct.gov.uk/Youthfunds.
