RESIDENTS in Merseyside can nominate a good cause to receive £1,000 as part of Benefact Group’s Movement for Good Awards.

Now in its 5th year, the Movement for Good Awards will once again see more than £1million gifted to charities up and down the UK and Ireland.

Since the awards began, people in Merseyside have submitted over 32,600 nominations and 42 Merseyside based charities have benefited from valuable donations.

While the Pandemic and the current economic climate has had an adverse effect on cash donations, the number of people choosing to volunteer their time for a good cause is rising. From today, Merseyside residents can give a minute to nominate a charity online at:- MovementForGood.Com.

The Movement for Goods Awards has gifted over £4million to charities in the UK and Ireland since the initiative started.

Winners will be drawn at random and the more times a charity is nominated the more chance it has of being selected. 150 winning charities will be announced from 1 June 2023, with a further 150 revealed in September 2023. Further gifts will be awarded throughout the year.

Mark Hews, Group Chief Executive at Benefact Group, says:- “We are immensely proud to be supporting many hundreds of charities through our Movement for Good Awards for the 5th year running. We know that £1,000 can make a huge difference so we’re asking that people give a minute of their time to nominate a cause they care about to receive an award. Owned by a charity ourselves, charitable giving is at the heart of what we do and all of our available profits go to good causes. With financial strain continuing to impact many households the Movement for Good Awards represents a great way for people to continue to support causes close to their hearts, without worrying about an additional cost. Any charity can win no matter how large or small and even with just one nomination. So find a minute, jump online, and nominate; because that small amount of time is invaluable for charities.”

Benefact Group has donated almost £200million to charitable causes since 2014 and has just been recognised as the third biggest corporate giver in the UK2. The organisation aims to reach £250million in donations by 2025.

Movement for Good is funded by EIO plc, part of the Benefact Group.
