IN BRIEF YOU CHOOSE WHO GETS £100K GRANT

SEIB is once again asking for the public to nominate good causes — but has doubled the amount it is to give away this year.

Following last year’s successful SEIB Giving scheme, the insurance broker is again to donate £50,000 to a charity, but this year, another £50,000 will be split between other good causes.

From the charities nominated by the public, a shortlist will be drawn up, on which SEIB clients will be able to vote. The winner will be announced next March.

“No charity is too small” to be nominated, but maximum turnover is £15m. The grant must be for a specific, UK-based project and UK-based charity.
