The Movement for Good Awards, spearheaded by the Benefact Group, is set to donate more than £1m to charities up and down the country this year.
Now in its seventh year, the initiative invites residents in Nottinghamshire to nominate their favourite charities for a chance to receive a donation of £1,000 at www.movementforgood.com
Winners will be drawn at random, and the initiative will also feature special sector-specific draws, with charities able to secure larger grants of £5,000. The timetable for these draws is available on the website, with winners announced throughout the year.
The Movement for Good Awards has donated more than £6m to charities in the UK and Ireland since the initiative started in 2019, including to Beaumond House Hospice, Newark.
Mark Hews, group chief executive of Benefact Group, said: “Benefact Group is a family of award-winning specialist financial services companies and the third largest corporate donor to charity in the UK. Owned by a charity ourselves, charitable giving is at the heart of what we do. All of our available profits go to good causes and the more the group grows, the more the group can give.
“We are delighted to be able to donate over £1m to good causes each year through our Movement for Good Awards and are grateful to all our supporters, including the customers of the trusted insurer, Ecclesiastical, and the responsible and sustainable asset manager, EdenTree. Our Movement for Good Awards help charities change lives for the better and we know that for many charities, £1,000 can make a real difference.”
