Nathaniel Harwood, marketing co-ordinator at Vernon Building Society, said: “Last year we counted a record 3,850 votes which shows the extent to which local people care about their community.
“After visiting a number of the groups who were awarded funding last year, I’m well aware of how much this funding and support means to them so would urge all readers to send their tokens before the Wednesday, September 14 closing date.”
This year’s programme will mean that since its launch in 2012 the Jubilee Fund will have awarded over £50,000 to more than 70 local charity and community groups.
