Nisa’s Making a Difference Locally launches biggest ever Heart of the Community Awards round

Nisa’s Making a Difference Locally charity has launched its biggest ever Heart of the Community Awards round with £250,000 being made available for local charities and not-for-profit causes.

The theme for Round 9 is ‘stronger communities’ which reflects MADL’s commitment to helping communities tackle pressing local issues and building “brighter futures”.

The charity said it would particularly welcome applications from youth groups that support cost of living pressures, social mobility, mental health and wellbeing, inequalities of ageing, breaking down barriers, creating fairer futures, levelling up communities and those implementing innovative community solutions.

Donations of up to £5,000 will be awarded to deserving causes.

All charities and not-for-profit initiatives are being encouraged to apply. However, Nisa said preference will be given to those helping young people due to two thirds of this age group feeling disadvantaged due to recent economic pressures.

Kate Carroll, head of charity at Nisa, said: “We are incredibly proud to launch this groundbreaking round of the Heart of the Community awards.

“Since 2020, the Heart of the Community initiative has provided over £1 million in donations, and we’re excited to continue supporting the incredible work happening at the grassroots level.”

Making an application

Applications for the Heart of the Community awards can be made directly through local Nisa retailers. Interested causes can also reach out to the MADL team for assistance by email: makingadifference@nisaretail.com.

The deadline for receipt of applications is 17 September 2024.
