Tesco, Morrisons, ASDA, Waitrose, Sainsbury’s, Iceland, and Ocado – will all donate money to your voluntary organization, charity, social enterprise or CIC when your community of supporters shop with them?

Whenever an online shopper buys groceries, the supermarket will send your organisation either a flat monetary amount (up to £5) or a percentage of what the online shopper spends. On average, just one person could raise £97.50 in a year for your organisation by doing their food shop; think what multiple people could do!  All types of third sector organisations can receive this funding - your organisation just needs to be registered with funding website easyfundraising.

An online seminar hosted by Alcohol Change UK 

10am to 1pm, Thursday 21 September 2023 

LGBTQ+ people are at more risk of alcohol problems; but when they encounter such problems, they are less likely to receive the support they need.  

At this online learning event, we’ll be hearing from experts with personal and professional experience of drinking in LGBTQ+ communities, working to make more LGBTQ+ sober spaces, and how support services can be made more relevant and accessible.  

 If you’re working to make alcohol support more inclusive, this is the event for you. 

  • Maryann Wright, founder of Sappho Events, about creating safe and sober social spaces for LGBTQ+ women. 
  • Hidayah UK, on their work supporting LGBTQ+ Muslims. 
  • Dean Connolly and Emma Davies on transgender and non-binary people’s experiences of alcohol
  • Monty Moncrieff MBE, from London Friend, on how drug and alcohol services can reach more LGBTQ+ people.
