Over 65 local causes supported in SPAR's Community Cashback 2025 campaign

SPAR’s annual Community Cashback grant scheme has once again spread support across the UK. This year, over 65 amazing charities and grassroots groups received a share of £100,000 to help power their work and uplift their communities.

Ian Taylor, Retail and Brand Development Director at SPAR UK, said:

"Supporting local communities is at the heart of SPAR, and this campaign is one of the many ways we show our ongoing commitment to the communities we serve. We thank everyone who took the time to nominate a cause that matters to them."

Now in its fourth year, the campaign continues to grow in both reach and impact. This year, it was further strengthened by the support of SPAR’s five Regional Distribution Centres (RDCs), who contributed additional funds to boost the central grant pot. This enabled SPAR to support even more community organisations nationwide.

Launched in April, the campaign invited SPAR shoppers to nominate local charities, voluntary groups and good causes making a real difference in their communities. Thousands of nominations were received from across the UK – a clear sign of the vital role these organisations play in community life.

From youth development and disability support to mental health and community sport, this year’s recipients span a diverse range of sectors, all rooted in the heart of their communities.

Some of the 2025 recipients include:

  • Scotland Yard Adventure Centre - £10,000
  • Victim Support NI - £10,000
  • Down Syndrome Cheshire - £10,000
  • VividTech for Good CIC - £10,000
  • Sense Hub Denbigh - £10,000
  • Highlands Psychoanalytic Collective - £5,000
  • Later Life Choices Glenrothes - £5,000
  • Preston Sports Club - £5,000
  • Moorland Community Project - £6,500
  • Community @ In Good Hands CIC - £5,000
  • NeuroHappiness Community Interest Company - £4,000

Ian Taylor, Retail and Brand Development Director at SPAR UK, said: “The response to this year’s campaign has been overwhelming. We have seen first-hand how these grants positively impact not only the organisations, but also the communities they serve. The additional funding from our RDCs this year meant we could go even further, helping over 65 causes across the UK.
