A performing arts centre in Norwich will receive £460,000 from a government fund.
The Garage in Norwich, a charity established in 2002 to support young people, particularly those that are disadvantaged, vulnerable or with limited opportunities, will get the money to improve its dance, drama and music facilities.
The money comes from the second round of the government's Youth Investment Fund will distribute a total of £90m to 43 youth centres.
The BBC reports that the Garage's Chief Executive, Adam Taylor, said the centre has been "working furiously" for 12 months to secure the investment.
"It's an amazing sum of money and we're incredibly fortunate to be in this position," Taylor said.
"It means we can repair our boiler which broke last year, and refurbish our cafe and bar and dance studios, which will help us earn money to support our charitable work with those facing challenging circumstances.
"The rest of the money will enable us to continue opening our doors to thousands of youngsters every day so they can take part in activities that give them the chance to change their lives."
