Nisa’s Making a Difference Locally (MADL) charity has launched a new round of this community funding.

The Heart of the Community awards will be supporting food pantries across the UK, with donations of up to £1,000 per store to help them provide essential food and other supplies to people in need.

A total of £50,000 in funding is available for Nisa retailers to nominate a local group, charity or good cause, with 50 winning causes being selected by a panel of judges.

The funding is raised through the sale of own brand products

Each store owner decides where they want the funding to go and it can be local or national charities they support.

To be considered for an award, speak to your local NISA retailers in the borough which are in Barnes, Hounslow, Twickenham and Hampton Wick. You can find their details using the Nisa store locator here.
