As well as building good quality homes and creating well-paid, high-skilled jobs, our Community Champions scheme makes a real difference to people's lives. We do this by supporting local charities, sports clubs and good causes across the country.
We have 30 offices across the UK that will each make a donation of up to £6,000 every quarter to those local organisations who are the lifeblood of our communities. Smaller donations are also available.
How to apply
Applying for a donation is really simple. All you need to do is complete the online form by clicking the link below.
In your application, please tell us why your group or charity deserves to be supported and how much you are seeking. We also need the location and contact information for the organisation you are representing so that we can direct this to our relevant local office for consideration.
Choose your ideal location, explore our homes, and find a place you’ll love.
