Nisa charity reaches over 180,000 people in UK

Nisa’s Making a Difference Locally (MADL) charity reached more than 180,000 people in the UK throughout 2023 with 2,000 donations.

Over £935,000 was donated through MADL to worthy community causes and charities across the UK.

This includes more than £310k donated to shelter and security causes including Knit and Natter groups that tackle isolation and loneliness and SEN groups that bring together children and their carers and families. These donations supported over 66,000 people.

In addition, £175k was donated to food poverty initiatives which included breakfast clubs and warm spaces, which support people choosing between heating and eating. These initiatives have helped over 25,000 people.

More than £300k funded wellbeing sport and social activities initiatives which reached over 64,000 people. Donations included sporting equipment, clothing, and funding grassroots clubs UK wide.

Nisa raised over £2,000 for charity partner Barnardo’s while also launching the Club 15 initiative at the 2023 Nisa Expo – a charity initiative to celebrate MADL’s 15th year anniversary.

MADL opened its first Heart of the Community Awards for 2024 recently with food pantries across the UK set to benefit from donations.

Kate Carroll, Head of Charity at Nisa, said: “A massive thank you to all our retailers and shoppers who supported their local communities last year and helped us to reach so many people across the UK.

“We know that our retailers play a hugely important role in their respective communities, and I’m delighted they work so closely with MADL to raise the funding to donate to some wonderful causes which are hugely significant in their own local communities.”
