As NEXT is a well established brand we receive lots of requests for support in the forms of Gifts in Kind (e.g. Raffle prizes) and Cash ( monetary donations).
Important Update: Charity Funding Applications for 2025
Thank you for your interest in applying for charity funding from Next PLC.
Due to the exceptionally high volume of funding requests already received, we are no longer accepting further applications for 2025.
We understand the significant time and effort that charities and organisations invest in preparing funding applications. With a large number of strong submissions already scheduled for review in our final two committee meetings of the year, we feel it would be unfair to accept any more at this stage.
As a retailer committed to supporting communities and causes across the UK, we’re proud to work with a wide range of organisations. While we are unable to consider additional requests for 2025, we encourage you to check back for future funding opportunities.
As our financial year runs from 1st Feb to 31st Jan, we will look to reopen our applications in Mid December
Thank you for your understanding.
If you would like to request raffle prizes or Gifts in Kind, please email charities_department@next.co.uk
