Food banks, Community Foundations and Age UK will be among those to benefit after the Co-op pledged its support local community groups and services in the region during the current pandemic, to the tune of £75,000.
Felixstowe and Walton has six East of England stores supplying the area and have all played their part in backing the community.
This initial donation has been made to the following groups, to support their work over the next three months:
- £45,000 to 22 foodbanks across Norfolk, Suffolk and Essex - to help these vital services secure food for those who need it most
- £18,000 of funding to Age UK Essex, Suffolk and Norfolk, which will be used to provide food and support to vulnerable older people across our region
- £12,000 split across Community Foundations in Essex, Suffolk and Norfolk - so they can direct funds to community groups who need it most via their local Coronavirus Response Funds.
