As organisations continue to navigate financial pressures and unpredictable energy markets, collective purchasing is providing a smarter way to secure greater cost certainty.
Utility Aid's National Charity Tender (NCT) brings charities, schools, churches and other non-domestic organisations together to benefit from combined buying power, helping participants access competitive energy prices and reduce exposure to market volatility. The latest framework has now been extended into a fourth year, giving organisations the added reassurance of an extra year of fixed pricing.
Beyond financial benefits, the scheme also supports the wider sector. Every charity meter registered through the NCT generates a donation to the Utility Aid Foundation, helping to create positive impact across communities.
Organisations looking to join the next National Charity Tender, or those with contracts due for renewal, are encouraged to register by 30 October.
