Volunteers needed for charity food collection
From Thursday, November 21, until Saturday, November 23, charities - Trussell Trust and Fare Share will be collecting food in Tesco stores across Northern Ireland during the annual Tesco Food Collection. They are looking for local volunteers right to encourage shoppers to donate, so that as much food as possible can be collected.
During the collection customers are encouraged to donate long-life food to help food banks and community groups support people in need at Christmas.

Tesco will top up customer donations by 20 per cent to further support the two charities in their work.
To make this year’s collection a success volunteers are needed to hand out shopping lists to customers, so they can see the food items most needed by food banks and community groups in their area, and to encourage people to donate.
