The Community Foundation for Lancashire held an evening reception at 10 Downing Street to showcase their work on behalf of charities, community groups and philanthropists to an invited audience of Lancashire’s business leaders, benefactors and donors.

Cathy Elliott said: “We are dedicated to helping local people at a grassroots level and, since we launched in 2007, we have distributed over £3.6 million in grants and worked with over 700 community groups across Lancashire.

“These achievements have only been made possible through the generosity of our donors.” The Community Foundation for Lancashire is an independent registered charity which undertakes strategic grant making, facilitates philanthropy and contributes to achieving positive social change in local communities.
