Community groups need your votes to get hands on cash boost

COMMUNITY groups in the Rotherham area in the running for a cash injection — but they need your vote.

A total of 66 Yorkshire and Humber based groups have all been shortlisted for Skipton Building Society's Grassroots Giving campaign, which this year has £82,000 to donate.

Now they are looking to secure enough public votes to become one of the 164 community groups across the country which will all receive pots of £500.
