Selco Builders Warehouse has announced Noah’s Star as the third finalist of its 2026 Community Heroes initiative.
The nomination recognises the charity’s dedication and support for families of prematurely born and sick babies across Birmingham.
The charity was selected from amongst the applications from June by a panel including celebrity judge and TV tradesperson, Rob Bent.
Noah’s Star has secured £2,000 to spend in its local Selco Builders Warehouse store, and will join seven more finalists selected between April and November 2026 to face a public vote in December to decide the Community Heroes 2026 winner, who will receive £15,000 in cash.
Simon Humpage, head of multichannel marketing at Selco Builders Warehouse, said: “The story of Noah’s Star immediately pulled on our heartstrings, and we knew we wanted to support them by crowning them a Selco Community Hero.”
“Charities such as Noah’s Star rely on donations to make their spaces more welcoming and functional for users, so we’re pleased to be able to aid them in improving their facilities. We’re proud to now be a part of the work they do and look forward to watching them grow.”
