Cortonwood Comeback Community Centre

Barnsley, UK

Cortonwood Comeback Community Centre was established in 1986 by members of the local community who recognised the need to tackle the problems of unemployment, exclusion and disadvantage in Brampton Bierlow and surrounding areas in the aftermath of the miner’s strike. Our Centre has always been run and managed by volunteers. Throughout our history, it has never had a paid manager and many of our groups are run by volunteers who give their time and expertise freely to the Community Centre. The Centre aims to help overcome the inequalities and lack of access to services that have a direct impact on the lives of the elderly, young people, and those on low incomes. We aim to advance education and provide facilities for recreation and leisure time, with the objective of improving people’s quality of life Providing a community service that’s needs-led, we adapt services to the needs of the community at any given time.

E6-Sisters Community Pantry

London, UK

The E6-Sisters Community Pantry, located in the London Borough of Newham, is committed to fostering sustainability and empowerment within our community. We provide residents with weekly access to a pantry where they can choose their preferred food items, rather than receiving predetermined offerings. This empowers households, especially during crises, helping them regain control over their lives. Our pantry serves as a sanctuary, fostering a sense of stability and community ownership. By addressing food insecurity, we believe we can accelerate recovery, enabling residents to explore new opportunities. Our ethos promotes the transition from receiving help to thriving, bridging the gap between taking what is given and selecting what is needed. This approach minimizes waste and encourages fair sharing, ensuring that everyone has access to what they truly need.

HEINEKEN UK Neighbourly campaigns

Heineken Colleague Matched Giving 2026

As we aim to Brew a Better World we’re committed to making a positive impact in our communities. Every year colleagues from across the business run, swim, walk, cycle, bake and take on mountains to raise money for charities and community organisations close to their hearts. We’re proud to support your efforts by matching what you raise, up to a maximum of £200 per individual application and up to £500 for team applications. You can apply for fundraising support if you are a UK based colleague and can demonstrate you have raised more than £50 for a UK registered charity or community organisation. If you’re fundraising as a group of three or more colleagues, you don’t need to individually apply – instead you can apply as a group through the same form.

HEINEKEN Colleague Volunteering 2026

Volunteering is a way for you to live the HEINEKEN values and bring to life our commitment to support the communities where we live, work, and sell our beers and ciders. It can also provide you with opportunities for personal development, learning new skills and building relationships with other colleagues and the wider community.

The Extra Hour 2026

This October, when the clocks go back, we don't just gain an hour of sleep - we gain a gift of time. Neighbourly is inviting the employees of its volunteering partner businesses to put this ‘extra hour’ to good use – by supporting a local charity or community organisation on the Neighbourly platform. Join the campaign and spend your Extra Hour doing something Neighbourly!

HEINEKEN Winter Foodbank Fund

Recent research by Neighbourly highlighted that due to the cost of living and external demands we all face, 83% of charities stated demand is rising and 92% say the cost of living is a reason for this. Not only are more people reaching out to foodbanks for support, but the volunteers supporting these charities are also finding it hard to maintain their level of help as well. This winter we are setting up a winter fund to enable HEINEKEN colleagues to donate what you can and support foodbanks near to where we work in Edinburgh, Manchester, Tadcaster, Herefordshire and London. You can donate as little or as much as you like and the fund will remain open until the end of December 2022 – all you need to do is click on the ‘Donate’ button below. Please note that all money donated will be collected in a central fund and the total amount raised will be shared evenly across the 5 foodbanks near our sites. It is unfortunately not possible to allocate where your donation goes.

Brewing Good Cheer 2022

We’re celebrating togetherness through HEINEKEN’s Brewing Good Cheer campaign HEINEKEN's Brewing Good Cheer campaign has always been about supporting our communities and this time we’re focusing on celebrating the Joy of True Togetherness. Pubs are the best place to connect with others and that's why we want to promote and support our pubs and encourage people to get back together at their local again.
