The artist has handed over the complete sum of his £25k award prize money to the trust for venues, which functions to save the Britain's small concert spaces.
The star was presented with the prize on 16 October as his latest record his work was declared the top album of the previous year.
The musician has opted to give the cash to the trust, in recognition of the essential function grassroots venues played in his beginning days.
"I wouldn't be doing what I am doing today if it hadn't been for all the performances I performed around the North East, and further afield, when I was beginning," remarked the artist. "These locations are legendary, but they are in difficulty."
Since the start of 2023, over 150 of these venues have ceased operations – approximately 16% of the entire UK sector.
Over the past year, top acts including Pulp, Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all aided the trust in its attempts to help venues survive, by adding a minor surcharge to their admission fees, which benefits independent venues.
He also took part, raising over £100k on his live tour to help numerous small stages across Britain.
These funds assisted spaces that were facing possible closure due to issues arising from flooding, fire incidents and personal losses, as well as permit problems, court cases and neighbor objections.
Additional spaces received monetary aid in improving amenities and technical equipment that directly benefitted artists and concertgoers.
"The idea that money from performances in large arenas backs the local stages, where it begins for artists like me, is just sensible," the star has stated.
The musician is not the first artist to contribute his award winnings to good deeds.
When the band won the trophy in the mid-90s for their release Different Class, lead singer Jarvis Cocker announced that the act would give their cash to the non-profit War Child.
That year, artist the artist divided her bounty across several organizations, like the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell organization.
"Additionally, I donated a grand to my local community centre, to their gymnastics program, because I practiced gymnastics when I was younger and they required better apparatus," Ms Dynamite shared with the media.
Two years ago, the band gave their funds to the community center that nurtured their act, as well as other local music groups.
Also 1994 winners the group contributed their winnings to a MS organization after a acquaintance was diagnosed the condition.
"Receiving the award was ample," stated vocalist the singer. "The cash was the cherry on top but we didn't require the cherry, because we had the honor. So our success impacted the lives of others."
Recently, the Music Venues Trust shared it had rescued two small stages in that region, by transferring them to public stewardship.
One venue in the city and the second in that location were bought under the public acquisition scheme, which is funded by a national body and music fans who purchase "shares" in the venues.
