The Small Charity Week Challenge has come to an end

This campaign ran between 18th and  24th June. Throughout the week we highlighted the amazing, and wide ranging causes that local charities and community groups support.

Every Localgiving member was automatically included in one of five leaderboards . Over the week we ranked  the charities on each leaderboard by the number of unique donations they received.

We are currently verifying the results – once this is done the top 5 groups  on each leaderboard will be awarded financial prizes - totalling £4,000.

We depend on a steady stream of smaller donations via Localgiving. These donations alone give us the assured income to meet our operational costs. Matched funding, sponsored by both Localgiving and the Community Foundation have further bolstered our funds to allow us to undertake capital improvements to the Shed.
