Manchester Charity Receives Generous Grant from £1 Million Fund

In a heartwarming display of generosity, a youth charity in Manchester has recently been awarded a £1,000 grant as part of Benefact Group’s Movement for Good Awards. This funding boost will play a crucial role in supporting the vital work carried out by Community Little Hulton, a charity dedicated to making a positive impact on the community.

Community Little Hulton is a beacon of hope for the residents of Little Hulton, offering a wide range of activities, services, events, clubs, support, and training opportunities. From a youth club for young people to a games group for older individuals, the charity caters to individuals of all ages and backgrounds. By bringing the community together, Community Little Hulton is fostering an environment where new and existing community groups can thrive and grow, sparking important conversations about local initiatives and projects.

The recent £1,000 donation from Benefact Group’s Movement for Good Awards will be instrumental in supporting Community Little Hulton’s ongoing programs, including their Food Club, Youth Unity sessions, and wellbeing activities for all ages. This financial boost will enable the charity to continue making a meaningful difference in the lives of those they serve, providing much-needed resources and support to the community.

Mark Hews, the group chief executive at Benefact Group, expressed his gratitude to all those who nominated worthy causes for the Movement for Good Awards. As a family of award-winning specialist financial services companies and the third largest corporate donor to charity in the UK, Benefact Group is committed to giving back to the community. With all available profits going towards charitable causes, the Group’s growth directly translates to increased support for those in need.

Benefact Group’s Movement for Good Awards aims to distribute over £1 million to charities throughout the year, with 150 awards of £1,000 already allocated to deserving organizations across the UK and Ireland. The initiative encourages members of the public to nominate causes close to their hearts, ensuring that a diverse range of charities receive the support they require to continue their valuable work. Manchester residents are encouraged to participate in the nomination process, with further winners set to be announced later in the year.
