This winter, Yorkshire Profiles is thrilled to partner with YorkMix Radio to support the local community through the “Tonne of Tins” campaign. Together, we aim to collect an incredible one tonne of food to donate to local foodbanks and help those in need during this challenging time of year.
Why Foodbanks Need Our Support
As the temperatures drop and festive celebrations are over, many families and individuals face the harsh reality of food insecurity. Rising costs of living, higher energy bills, and unexpected financial challenges mean that more people are turning to foodbanks to put meals on the table.
Foodbanks provide an essential lifeline, offering not just food but also hope and dignity to those in crisis. The demand for their services grows significantly during the winter months, and it’s our collective responsibility to help ensure no one in our community goes hungry.
How You Can Help
We’re calling on our amazing customers, partners, and the wider community to join us in supporting this campaign. Here’s how you can get involved:
- Donate Non-Perishable Food Items: Canned goods such as soup, beans, and vegetables, as well as items like pet food, fish and fruits.
