Nisa stores supported good causes with 585 donations throughout the first quarter of 2021, totalling £264,470, also the highest number of individual donations made.
In total 322 donations, totalling £165,551, were made to good causes across the UK during March.
Kate Carroll, Nisa’s head of charity, said: “Many good causes are still struggling to fundraise due to nationwide restrictions but their services have never been more needed, and it’s been truly heart-warming to see how Nisa partners have really responded to the needs of their local communities.”
Making a Difference Locally launched the second round of its Heart of the Community Awards last week.
