BIG magazine is packed full of stories about people whose lives have changed for the better thanks to the Big Lottery Fund, currently the largest distributor of good causes money.
England
In the latest edition of Big Magazine England read about the ordinary people who do extraordinary things on behalf of others, like our People’s Champion, Cas Beckett. She runs a support service for men who have carried the damaging burden of childhood abuse into adulthood. And there’s Pat Penny, who has started a refuge for vulnerable and homeless teenagers. Both women’s caring attitude, selflessness and dedication are inspirational, and there are many more like them running Lottery-funded projects all over England.
