100x100 Programme in the UK
Through our 100x100 Programme, we invited UK charities to apply for one of 100 donations of £100,000 to support vital COVID-19 relief work in local communities. We were so inspired by the scale of the response that we expanded the programme to help more charities. We reached more than 250 charities across the UK to deliver vital support where it’s needed most.
