A building company is inviting good causes in Wymondham to bid for up to £1,000 of funding.

Persimmon Homes Anglia, based at Broadland Business Park in Norwich, is urging community groups and charities from the area to apply for match-funding donations from its Community Champions scheme.

Local groups and charities can bid for cash from a £720,000 national fund, with two donations of up to £1,000 being made locally every month.

Michelle Baker, sales director for Persimmon Homes Anglia, said: 'As we are currently building new homes on Norwich Common, we are keen to see local groups benefiting from the available funding. We are determined to donate where it will help the most. All we ask is that the group or charity has already worked hard to raise money themselves.'
