Originally scheduled to be a list of just 20 organisations, the sheer volume of worthy and deserving causes submitted, has led the local business to extend the finalists to 34 groups.
The winner of the prize fund will be the registration who receives the most online support through the online voting system that is now open. Please show your backing at www.mickgeorge.co.uk/huntsgold18.
- Voting lines are open March 28 and close April 24.
- The winner will be announced on May 2.
The shortlist includes:
1 Hunts Community Cancer Network
