Nisa charity to fund celebrations for Queen’s Jubilee

Nisa’s Making a Difference Locally charity has launched a third round of its Heart of the Community Awards initiative, which will support communities in celebrating the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee this year.

Nominations from Nisa retailers will be accepted via a dedicated website until 18 March, and 70 winners will be selected to receive up to £1,000 of funding for their community celebrations.

Donations could be used towards entertainment, equipment, food and drinks, venue hire or decorations, and each winning good cause will also receive a decorative MADL PoS kit with bunting.

Kate Carroll, Nisa’s head of charity, said: “We received a fantastic response to our two previous rounds of funding, so we’re delighted to be able to bring back the Heart of the Community Awards for a third round of donations.

“This special Jubilee edition of the Awards will give the opportunity for 70 of our fantastic Nisa retailers to celebrate this exciting and joyous event with the communities they serve, bringing people together to mark the Queen’s historic reign.”

Almost 90 good causes nationwide have benefited from donations totalling more than £310,000 in previous rounds of the Heart of the Community Awards initiative.
