SPAR’s £100,000 Community Cashback scheme returns

SPAR has launched its third £100,000 Community Cashback scheme, giving away various grants to local voluntary or community organisations and charities.

Last year, the group received more than 13,000 entries for the grants and rewarded over 20 different local organisations.

Shoppers from all over the UK can apply for a grant for an organisation or charity they feel deserves funding. All applicants need to do is share the exceptional contribution that a local organisation has made to their community and what the grant would be put towards.

Running until 22 May, the scheme offers grants of up to £10,000, with a total pool of grants valued at £100,000.

Suzanne Dover, SPAR UK brand & marketing director, said: “Empowering local communities is about nurturing our neighbourhoods and promoting a brighter future. We had such a brilliant response to last year’s campaign that we are delighted to bring it back again this year.

“The SPAR £100k Community Cashback campaign really demonstrates to our shoppers that we care about the charities and organisations in their local communities. Supporting our local communities is part of our heritage, and we are happy to bring this to life for our consumers.”
