ASDA - Carrier Bag Community Awards

Aims
In Wales, retailers are required to charge customers 5p for a single-use carrier bag. ASDA has decided to use this money to support good causes that benefit the local community in areas where its stores are located.*This fund will support projects and good causes that matter most to its customers:
- Children and Young People
- Older People
- Health
- Community Cohesion
The awards can help meet a wide range of costs for community groups, including equipment, materials and even local community activities and events
Who can apply
- Not for profit organisations
(for example a Registered Charity, Charitable Incorporated Organisation, Unincorporated Club or Association and Community Interest Company)
Awards available
- £2,000 for good causes and charities in your local area
Please note:
- Awards will not be awarded retrospectively i.e. for costs already incurred prior to receipt of the award offer letter and signed terms and conditions.
- The work can not benefit a single user;
- the award must not be used solely to fund staff salaries
- Successful organisations must be willing to be contacted by ASDA for further publicity and updates.
