RESIDENTS in Berkshire are being encouraged to nominate a charity to receive a festive financial boost.

Benefact Group’s Movement for Good Awards is seeking recipients as part of its annual 12 Days of Giving Christmas campaign, in which it will give away £120,000 to charities.

Ten charities a day will receive a £1,000 boost following weekday draws between December 1-16.

Benefact Group has donated over £250million to charitable causes since 2014 and last year was recognised as the third biggest corporate giver in the UK1 over the last decade.

Mark Hews, Group Chief Executive of Benefact Group, said: “We’re delighted to be giving away another £120,000 in valuable donations to causes around the country.

“We know that charities across the country are struggling, and for many the festive season is a critical time.

“We know that £1,000 can make a huge difference to the incredible work that charities do and we’re looking forward to seeing how this financial boost will change lives for the better.”

Nominations are now open, and submissions can be made online via: movementforgood.com
