Hide AdMaking A Difference Locally is a charity that has been established to support local communities.
It helps Nisa stores raise money that can then be donated to local charities and good causes.
The money is raised through the sale of certain products in the store, including all of the Nisa’s own-label Heritage range. Every time an item, included in the scheme, is purchased, a proportion of the price is added to the store’s MADL fund.
Tomas Rupsys, of As A Lenus Trading Ltd, said: “The donation is part of our way of giving back to he local charities in the community, where we feel very proud and we would like to get more involved this year.
