Foundation for Peace, the charity set up to help survivors or people bereaved by conflicts and acts of terrorism in the UK, has appointed Paver Smith to support its bid to win a national award.

The organisation is through to the semi-finals of The National Lottery Awards, an annual search to find the UK's favourite Lottery-funded projects. Paver Smith has been appointed to help attract votes to take it through to the final round.

Case studies of those who have been through the programme have been used to mount a campaign throughout regional press and broadcast media in a bid to reach the finals.

The project has helped more than 200 survivors of conflict and terrorism in the past two years, with lottery money funding a programme manager, other members of staff and a range of running costs.

The winning project will receive national recognition on the BBC later this year and a cash prize to spend on the project.

Chief executive Clare White said of the project: “We saw this as an opportunity to raise awareness about the programme and promote it to potential participants. Paver Smith reacted to our request for support very quickly and professionally and has helped us enormously.”
