**Ecclesiastical is launching a £1 million giving programme this month, called Movement
for Good awards.**

 

The Movement for Good Awards will have two funding categories. The first will see
500 charities awarded £1,000 each, and this will be open for nominations from 23
April to 17 May, to eligible charities registered in the UK and Republic of Ireland,
from small volunteer-run groups to larger, well-known organisations. Anyone can 
place a nomination for this category.
