Where the money goes

Local good causes, powered by Glossop

Every ticket, every pint and every penny raised at a Round Table event ends up on this page. We’re a small group of volunteers — the real work is done by the charities and community groups below, and we’re proud to help where we can.

We’ve supported all of these local charities for many years — and hope to do so for many more years to come.

This is a sample list, not an exhaustive one — we support new causes every year through our open donation request scheme. If you run a local good cause, applications are open to be considered for a grant.
