Nominations Are Now Open

We’re proud to support the incredible work local charities do across Ashton-under-Lyne. Each year, we partner with one charity to support them through fundraising, events in the centre, and promotion across our digital channels, helping them reach more people and continue the work they do in our community.

Over the past couple of years, we’ve had the pleasure of working with The Anthony Seddon Fund and Willow Wood Hospice, supporting their efforts and helping raise valuable funds along the way. Now, we’re looking for our next Charity Partner for 2026/27.

We know there are so many charities out there doing important and meaningful work, and we’d love to hear about as many as possible.

If there’s a charity you’d like to nominate, simply complete the form below by the 26th May. We can’t wait to read your nomination!
