Charity of the Year

Our ‘Charity of the Year’ is an individual charity that we support for a 12 month period.

The Burnaston, Derbyshire, and Deeside, North Wales plants of the Trust are committed to giving back to their local communities. As part of this commitment, the Trust nominates a charity to support each year. The nominated charity is selected based on the results of the Trust's annual fundraising activities, and the chosen charity receives a significant donation early the following year.

The Trust is happy to support any UK-based charity, but it ideally prefers to support charities that spend their funds in the local communities around the Trust's plants. However, this is not a requirement, and the Trust will consider all eligible charities.
