ICMIF member and specialist insurer Ecclesiastical (UK) will be giving 120 different charities an early Christmas gift of a £1,000 donation, with 10 winners announced each weekday from 7 to 22 December 2020.

Ecclesiastical is inviting people in the UK to nominate a registered charity close to their hearts to benefit from this festive financial boost.

Nominations are open from 9 November to 21 December and people can vote for their favourite charity at www.movementforgood.com/12days

The winning charities will be drawn at random and Ecclesiastical is encouraging charities and their supporters to use their social media channels to ask people to vote for their favourite cause to give them the best possible chance of winning.

Mark Hews, Group CEO of Ecclesiastical, said: “As a commercial company with a charitable purpose, giving back is at the heart of our business. Our annual 12 days of giving Christmas campaign will help charities change lives for the better and we know that for many charities, £1,000 can make a real difference. We’re encouraging everyone to nominate a cause close to their hearts this Christmas to be in for a chance to win a festive financial boost.”

Last month, Ecclesiastical launched its latest Impact Report to celebrate some of the many good causes it has helped.

Last month the insurer also announced that ten charitable causes from across the UK had each been selected for a £50,000 gift as part of Ecclesiastical Insurance’s Movement for Good awards.

The Movement for Good awards have seen a total of £1million given to charities across the UK this summer with five hundred charities having already been awarded donations of £1,000 earlier this year.
