Community Story: Carers First (East Lincolnshire).

"Carers have told us after receiving a warm pack they feel valued, they feel thankful and most importantly that the packs have made a real difference to them in the winter months. When the packs have been home delivered many carers have wept, they have been so touched that someone has remembered them."

"We are over the moon to have won a Charity Times Award, particularly given the very high calibre of projects in our category and across the night as a whole – it was a privilege to be among such wonderful causes and organisations."

"If it were not for supporters like yourself providing financial aid in the form of grants and ongoing contributions, we would simply not be able to run our charity and enable our vital and much-needed work to continue. For this, we offer our deepest gratitude."

Charity of the month - Leeds Women's Aid

Leeds Women's Aid has been working for over 50 years to support women and children to live in safety, free from Domestic Violence & Abuse. They provide a range of the very best services for vulnerable women and families who are victims and survivors of: domestic, sexual & honour based violence and abuse; forced marriage; trafficking; stalking and harassment.

Featured causes

"Localgiving has been fantastic in providing a capable online fundraising platform that is easy to setup, user friendly and allows us to claim Gift Aid. It has also meant we’ve had access to extra fundraising opportunities and grants such as Magic Little Grants and more recently the National Grid community fund."
