If you had £10,000 to spend on a project that could change a small part of the
world for the better, how would you choose to spend it? Three very different
groups of young people won the opportunity to respond to this challenge.
This series follows the young people’s progress as they plan their projects
and then travel across the world to spend £10,000 with the aim of making
a ‘world of difference’. We discover how a relatively small sum of money can
transform the lives of communities elsewhere. But it’s about much more
than the money … we see people working in partnership to change people’s
expectations and opportunities.
