We are delighted to announce HOME was recognised for our contribution to culture and arts at the Manchester Culture Awards 2021.
HOME was nominated twice in the Best Business Partnership category, for our partnership with Auto Trader and as well as the Cultural Hardship Fund for Freelancers: Savannah Wisdom Foundation with B&M Retail Ltd, HOME and Manchester City Council – the latter taking the win. The Cultural Hardship Fund was able to provide over 200 grants to freelancers in Manchester who had faced financial hardship due to COVID-19.
