Spar’s £100,000 Community Cashback campaign has returned for a fourth consecutive year, providing funding to voluntary organisations, charities, and community groups across the UK.

Last year, Spar awarded more than 50 charities and local causes with grants of up to £10,000, following more than 10,000 entries.

Applications open on 24 April, enabling shoppers to nominate a local charity or organisation.

Running until 4 June, the £100,000 fund will be distributed across the UK, with individual grants of up to £10,000 available.

Ian Taylor, retail and brand development director at Spar UK, said the initiative is about supporting communities where its stores are located.

He added: “We have seen first-hand the incredible impact these grants have on local organisations, and we are proud to continue giving back. Supporting local communities has always been part of Spar’s heritage, and we are committed to making a tangible difference where it matters most.”
