This Sussex Day, celebrated each year on 16 June, our first photo competition highlights the crucial work of local small charities and community groups. The four winning entries, one for each of Sussex Community Foundation’s funding priorities, will all receive £150 to support their work.
"Thanks for this fantastic news. We are really delighted that the panel loved our photo, we do too. It shows the Float and our work in full colour!"
The winners are:
The charity provides services to support local people experiencing food and fuel poverty, including running the Horsham District Foodbank.
Providing support for vulnerable communities across Sussex through transformational music programmes that increase confidence, enhance wellbeing and bring people together.
This charity provides support and learning tailored to improve the life chances of vulnerable children and adults, particularly in Hastings.
The charity engages and inspires Sussex people on green living through education and outreach activities, recycling initiatives and pop-up repair cafes.
“Sussex Day is a great opportunity to celebrate the best of our county and for us at the Foundation, that means our amazing network of small charities and community groups and the dedicated people behind them. We want to congratulate our four winners whose images show some of the incredible community and voluntary work making Sussex a better place to live for everyone.”
