MHF awarded £19,940.00 by grant-giving charity funded entirely by players of People’s Postcode Lottery


Posted on December 17th, 2020

Postcode Neighbourhood Trust is a grant-giving charity funded entirely by players of People’s Postcode Lottery. The Muscle Help Foundation made an application on 17th August 2020 as part of its wider fundraising strategy in attracting and securing funds in pursuing a resilient beneficiary led COVID-19 plan. In offsetting some of the effects of COVID-19 for the charity, the award will fund vital support over a 12-month period.

“In recognition of the Muscle Help Foundation charity’s work at what continues to be an extremely challenging period for our vulnerable community, I am delighted that we have received this incredibly welcome award in the amount of £19,940.00 – we’re absolutely thrilled!

I know that the volume of applications to the People’s Postcode Lottery Trusts increased by some 20% in the specific round that our charity’s application was made which makes it even more special. To be successful, you must detail very clearly what specific activities will take place, how these relate to the Trust theme and the difference that the award will make for our community.

Moving into 2021, the charity will continue to identify trust funds and grant making bodies that may be able to support our COVID-19 response efforts. Next year sees a significant milestone for the charity as we will in March 2021 be celebrating 18 years of operation – despite the uncertainties brought about by this wretched pandemic, we are more determined than ever to keep focused on our community and ultimately our mission.

If you wish to make a donation or perhaps the company you work for is thinking about adopting a small charity in 2021, look no further – not only can we demonstrate our impact in a way that’s never been achieved before by any other charity in the broad wish-fulfilment space, but we have much to offer a partnership, not least the opportunity to directly witness the magic of a Muscle Dream intervention.

To all those players of the People’s Postcode Lottery, thank you from the bottom of our hearts – please keep playing. And to the team that work for the Postcode Neighbourhood Trust, we’re enormously grateful for your support.”

CEO, The Muscle Help Foundation
