£133M+ raised for good causes

For more than a decade our players have raised money on behalf of multiple local community interest companies (CICs). This money was distributed by the People’s Health Trust. 

In this time more than £133M was raised for good causes. The money was given to thousands of small charities doing vital work at local level to support the health and wellbeing of people in Britain. 

These are some of the inspiring projects we’ve been proud to support:
