The Lloyds Group has launched a Community Fund to support good causes around the country. In each community the top two will receive £3,000, and the two runners up will get £300 to fund their activities.
I am delighted that four Haringey groups have been shortlisted. These are:
- Haringey Phoenix Group (Provides IT training to the blind and partially sighted)
- Haringey Rhinos Youth Rugby Programme (Volunteer-run rugby club for more than 125 kids)
- Kith & Kids (Activities and support for children with learning disabilities and autism)
- The Markfield Project (Community group for disabled youths to ensure their voice is heard)
These are all very worthy causes, and it is up to the public to decide who gets the most funding. To vote, please go here and search for the group you would like to support.
Alternatively, links to the voting sites for the four Haringey nominations can be found below.
This ends on November 1st so get voting, and good luck to all those shortlisted!
