We established the Community Champions scheme in 2015. Under the scheme, each of our local operating businesses donates up to £6,000 every three months to local organisations. In 2023 the scheme donated c.£734,000 to 384 charities, sports clubs and local community groups across the country.

Supporting our communities
Through Persimmon’s Community Champions scheme, our West Scotland office supported an all-girls’ football club in North Ayrshire with a £1,000 donation.
Clark Drive Girls FC runs teams ranging from under-sevens to women. They play a key role in the community and provide a welcoming environment for girls of all ages to train, compete and develop their skills. The club is based in Irvine, where Persimmon has been building vibrant and successful communities.
Persimmon’s donation relieved some of the funding pressure on the club’s players, friends and families and was used to provide new equipment to help support more girls and women to get involved in the game.
