The Garfield Weston Foundation has called for small charities to develop ways to become more resilient to ensure they flourish, as they announced the winners of the Weston Charity Awards 2017.
17 charities working in the areas of youth, welfare and community have won Weston Charity Awards this year, including VONNE members Moving On in Durham, who aim to prevent homelessness in young people.
The Weston Charity Awards give small charities across the North of England and the Midlands unrestricted funding plus access to strategic support and mentoring from business leaders through the organisation Pilotlight.
The Garfield Weston Foundation is a charitable grant-making foundation, which supports a wide range of causes across the UK, donating over £60 million annually. The Weston Charity Awards are run in partnership with Pilotlight, a charity that connects the business and charitable worlds to make both more effective.
