Foodbank collection

As part of our partnership with the Trussell Trust and FareShare, we held our second National Food Collection to help feed people in need on 5 and 6 July 2013.

Thank you to all our customers who donated food in store.  We have topped up your donations by 30% and will be announcing totals very soon. 

In 2012, FareShare redistributed enough food for 10 million meals. This food was delivered to more than 900 charities, helping to feed 43,700 people each day. That’s 7,200 more people per day than in 2011. And last year almost 350,000 people turned to Trussell Trust foodbanks for help. That was almost three times the number who received food aid in the previous year and 100,000 more than anticipated.
