A popular community fund, offered by housebuilder Miller Homes, is open once again for applications from charities and community groups.

Originally launched in autumn 2022, several charities have already benefitted with £20,000 being donated to date.

One of the most recent to benefit were the Friends of Honley Junior, Infant and Nursery School which received £2,000.

The cash was used to help refurbish its outdoor areas as part of a schedule of work that will see play, garden and learning areas created to benefit all its children, including those with Special Educational Needs.

Debbie Whittingham, regional sales director for Miller Homes Yorkshire, said: “Our community fund has helped some fantastic charities and groups in Yorkshire and allowed us to support our local people.

“The application process is straightforward and our team consider all applications carefully to decide how the funds can be distributed.”

Applications are now being welcomed and will close on October 28 2024.

Groups can apply for a donation ranging between £250 minimum up to a maximum of £2,000. The donation should be to help enhance the lives of individuals and the areas in which they live.

Each of Miller Homes’ 10 regional offices across the UK will have its own £10,000 fund, which combined will contribute £100,000 to community initiatives across the country every year.
