The NWH Group Announces Third Round of Community Funding

The NWH Group, a leading family-owned national waste management and recycling business, is excited to launch the third round of its Community Fund. Demonstrating its strong commitment to supporting local communities, the NWH Group allocates an annual fund of £21,000 to private, community-led charities that align with the company's core values.

The company has already donated £12,000 this current year to multiple charities across Scotland and North East England and they are committed to donating £9,000 more in the third and final round for this year. With the aim of empowering local charities to sustain their vital community-based activities, the NWH Group first launched its community fund in 2016 and has since donated £182,000 to good causes.     

The four key pillars of support are:

   - Recycling Education for Young People: Empowering youth with environmental knowledge and sustainable practices.

    - Mental Wellbeing: Supporting mental health programs that foster emotional resilience and wellbeing.

    - Carbon Reduction: Promoting initiatives that help reduce carbon emissions.

    - Talent Growth: Supporting scholarships, apprenticeships, and skills development programs to nurture talent.

Charities operating within NWH Group's locations, including Newcastle, Dundee, Stranraer, Petterden, Glasgow, Dumfries, and Edinburgh, are encouraged to apply. Applications for this round are open from 28th October to 19th November 2024, with the results announced at the end of November.

Nicola Williams, at the NWH Group said: “We’re thrilled to roll out this next round of funding. It’s an honor to continue backing local charities, and we warmly encourage organisations that share our core values to take part and apply.”
