SUPERMARKET giant Aldi has launched its festive food donations scheme and is calling on charities and food banks in York to register so that they can receive a free donation this Christmas.
Aldi is aiming to redistribute all surplus fresh food from its stores in York to local charities on Christmas Eve. As part of the scheme, charities and food banks will be paired with local stores and can collect products such as fruit, vegetables, fresh meat, fish and bread from the stores after 6pm.
Charities should contact Aldi’s Corporate Responsibility team at Christmas@aldi.co.uk before November 18 with the following details to apply:
• Organisation name
• Charity number
• Organisation focus (e.g. soup kitchen, food bank)
• Contact details
• The postcode of the three nearest Aldi stores (using the Aldi store finder - https://www.aldi.co.uk/store-finder)
