The artist has given the full amount of his £25k award cash to the trust for venues, which functions to save the UK's grassroots concert spaces.
The star was given the prize on October 16 as his new release his work was declared the top album of the previous year.
Fender has chosen to donate the funds to the trust, in acknowledgment of the essential function small stages fulfilled in his early career.
"I would not have achieved this success if it weren't for all the shows I played around the region, and elsewhere, when I was just getting going," remarked Fender. "These locations are iconic, but they are in difficulty."
Beginning in 2023, over 150 of these venues have permanently closed – about one-sixth of the entire UK sector.
Recently, major artists like Pulp, the group Coldplay, Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all backed the trust in its efforts to support the industry, by including a small levy to their ticket costs, which benefits local stages.
He also took part, generating in excess of £100,000 on his live tour to help 38 local spots across the UK.
The money assisted venues that were confronting potential shutdown due to difficulties stemming from flooding, blazes and bereavements, as well as regulatory hurdles, court cases and neighbor objections.
Other venues were granted funding support in improving facilities and gear that directly benefitted performers and fans.
"The notion that funds from shows in big venues supports the independent spots, where it all starts for musicians like me, is just common sense," the star has commented.
The musician is not the first artist to donate his award funds to good deeds.
In they earned the trophy in 1996 for their release their work, lead singer the singer declared that the group would give their cash to the organization the charity.
In 2002, artist Ms Dynamite split her bounty across multiple charities, such as the children's charity and a Sickle Cell organization.
"Additionally, I donated a grand to Highgate Newtown, to their gymnastics class, because I trained in gymnastics when I was a child and they needed new equipment," Ms Dynamite shared with a publication.
In recent years, Ezra Collective contributed their winnings to the youth organization that nurtured their act, as well as other independent music bodies.
And the 1994 recipients they donated their prize to a multiple sclerosis charity after a acquaintance was identified with the illness.
"Winning was ample," said artist Heather Small. "The money was the cherry on top but we didn't need the cherry, because we had the main prize. So our success touched somebody else's life."
In the past week, the trust shared it had saved several small stages in that region, by transferring them to public stewardship.
One venue in that area and the other in that location were bought under the community ownership program, which is funded by the arts council and music fans who buy "shares" in the properties.
