The 2026 beneficiaries will be announced in June 2026.

Donations were made from the show’s 2025 profits to three local good causes:

  • Boaz - Boaz offers meaningful work and a sense of community to adults with learning disabilities. The show is proud to support a volunteer-led charity with deep local roots that promotes wellbeing, and creates a welcoming space for all.

  • Home-Start Winchester and Districts - For 20 years, Home-Start Winchester and Districts has provided confidential, non-judgemental support to parents with young children facing particularly challenging times.
