"Whatever size, charities can have a big impact, but research shows that right now, two universal challenges are income generation and management skills gaps.

Among this year's recipients is Woodland Heritage, a charity operating across Wales and the Midlands that champions the use of home-grown timber from sustainable, productive woodlands.  Chief Executive John Orchard said, "A Weston Charity Award gives the funds and friends we need to help us plot our course - amazing news!"

Other winners include charities Home-Start Cymru (offering family support in Cardiff, Wales), Standing Tall (tackling homelessness across the Midlands and North of England),  and Tempus Novo (rehabilitating ex-offenders across the Midlands and North of England).
