Local organisations encouraged to apply for latest round of Tesco Community Grants

Organisations across Flintshire are being invited to apply for the latest round of Tesco Community Grants. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Groundwork North Wales works as an enabler for the Tesco Community Grants programme across North Wales and is looking for applications from North Wales based registered charities and not-for-profit organisations. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Tesco Community Grants will fund local good causes whose focus is on supporting Children and Families and this year’s theme is a ‘Stronger Start’. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Tesco customers and colleagues can nominate a cause that they would like to see supported and they will be contacted by our enabler and encourage to apply. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Geraint Hughes, Tesco Grant Enabler Officer at Groundwork North Wales, said: “We would love to hear from any local registered charities and not-for-profit organisations who would be interested in applying for a Tesco Community Grant. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

“I’m here to help throughout the process so please get in touch as the grants are a great opportunity for funding”. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Tesco Community Grants will select three projects / good causes from the applications that need a little extra help in your local area. When a customer is given a blue token, in any Tesco store at checkout, they can vote for their favourite of the selected three project / good causes to receive a grant by putting the blue token in the Tesco Community Grants box. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Voting takes place in store throughout July, August and September 2021 with 1st place receiving £1500, 2nd place £1000 and 3rd place £500. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​
