Since the partnership in 2020, we have supplied hundreds of low cost 'Magic Bags' containing products that have expired but not passed their 'use-by' date, to customers rather than destroying them. Find out More

 

3) JKN Outreach

A bit of 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘦 to make a 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘦!

At SaveCo we now have food donation points where you can donate food for those struggling within the Bradford community.

JKN Outreach have the aim of actively seeking to provide help to some of the most vulnerable and less fortunate members of the Bradford community.

A huge thanks to our SaveCo Cash & Carry generous customers for filling up the JKN food bank collection basket and donation box.

A nice £43.07 collected in January, that will go towards tackling food insecurity.

Next time you're in-store, leave a few items in the JKN food bank donation basket and spare a bit of change to help JKN continue their charitable work. Donate in Store

 

4) My Healthy Mind

Over the past few months SaveCo have teamed up with health and well being coach and consultant Ashfaq Ahmed from MyHealthyMind to deliver mental health awareness sessions.

These are mental health awareness sessions which equip senior leaders in organisations to spot signs of mental ill health at an early stage and support staff in getting the support they need. It also equips SLT with knowledge to have the confidence to deal with issues around mental health that may arise in the workplace.

MyHealthyMind’s mission is to create a support-model based around the needs of diverse communities, thus reducing stigma associated with mental health in diverse communities.

MyHealthyMind has been set up to assist diverse communities in accessing the support they require with mental health challenges that they may face individually, as a family and as a community.

MyHealthyMind’s primary goal is around early intervention and ensuring all members of diverse communities can access support early and be able to live a healthy and balanced life, irrespective of whatever mental health challenges they may face or live with.
