The Big Arts Give

December might seem a long way off…but we are already planning The Big Give Christmas Challenge 2010!

This year we will be running several Challenge Funds, each supporting a different charitable sector and raising a total of £20million.

Last week, in association with Arts & Business, we were proud to announce our very first Challenge Fund…The Big Arts Give.

The Challenge was launched by Ed Vaizey, the new Minister for Culture, and was a great success – congratulations to Arts & Business!

Here are a selection of the press articles about the launch:
