Giving back to the community

At Jangro, we believe that we have a responsibility to give something back to the communities and areas in which we operate. That’s why, as a business, we support a nominated charity each year. Most recently, we have been fundraising for Macmillan Cancer Support and last December, we were thrilled to reach our target of £100,000!

This year, we have decided to support The Trussell Trust. All 47 members in our network have started collecting foods and other essentials and have been dropping them off to their local food banks across the country. At a time when the true cost of living is soaring, we hope our contributions will help families get by that little bit easier.

As well as organising food collections, we will also be donating any monies raised from fundraising events throughout the year, such as our annual supplier days. You can track our progress or donate at our Just Giving page. It’s still early days, but we have already raised over £3,000.

The Trussell Trust is a worthy charity that supports a nationwide network of food banks. Together they provide emergency food and support to people locked in poverty. We share its vision for a UK without the need for food banks; for a just, compassionate future, where no one should have to use one to get by.
