There are six £1,000 draws in 2025, so the earlier you nominate, the more chances your charity has of being drawn.
Once you’ve nominated, your charity will be included in all the remaining £1,000 draws in 2025.

This special draw is open to charities whose core charitable purpose is to the theme of the funding window.
If the charity you want to nominate has another core purpose, then it’s not eligible for the draw. You can however enter them in their main draw here.
If you’ve already nominated a charity for a £1,000 donation in their main draw, please ensure you nominate them again using the special form to make sure they’re in the running.
Ten winning charities will be drawn to win £5,000 each after the nomination period ends.
