Distribution company CitySprint has partnered with the Trussell Trust to support its mission to end the need for food banks in the UK, and CitySprint will be donating £20,000 per year to the Trussell Trust to help achieve this.

CitySprint will be donating £20,000 per year to the Trussell Trust and has set an overall fundraising target of £150,000 for the business and its employees for 2022 to be spread across various charities and good causes. In addition to this, 2021 also marks CitySprint’s eleventh year of partnership with Crisis, the national charity for homeless people. Each year, CitySprint provides three vehicles for the Crisis team year-round to collect and distribute donations, with extra vans supplied at Christmas.

The Trussell Trust supports a nationwide network of over 1,300 food bank centres and provides emergency food and help to people locked in poverty, as well as campaigning for change to end the need for food banks in the UK.

Speaking about the partnership, Sarah Gibbs, people director at CitySprint said: “Our business has, and always will, put people first, which is why we are honoured to partner with the Trussell Trust to support them in their mission to ensure everyone can afford the essentials in life in the UK. This has been a difficult year for many of us, and we want to do what we can to make a difference. All of us at CitySprint are looking forward to getting involved with the Trussell Trust and raising as much money as we can to provide assistance to people that are facing hardship.”
