Festive Food Drive

By Your SU

Alongside the University of Sunderland, we’ve teamed up with our friends at Durham, Newcastle, Northumbria and Teesside to run a Festive Food Drive to collect items for foodbanks, which will help those who most need it this Christmas.

If you can make any donations, please deliver them to any of the collection points throughout the month of November. We accept a variety of food items and some non-food items too. Have a look in your cupboards if there’s anything you won’t use that you can donate. Or perhaps add an item onto your regular grocery shop and bring that in to donate!
