GroceryAid Day returns on Tuesday 2nd March 2021, and after the year like 2020 it’s more important than ever that your colleagues know about the support available to them.
“Whilst our industry has been resilient, statistics show that over 6 million households are currently financially fragile, with many falling into arrears with household bills. GroceryAid is here to support your colleagues with financial support including grants* and debt advice through to emotional support; counselling, relationship advice and mental health services,” said a spokesperson for the charity.
“Our key workers throughout the grocery industry have done an amazing job going into work during the Covid-19 pandemic to keep the nation fed. When you’re busy with work and trying to cope with new, unusual or challenging circumstances, taking care of yourself can take a back seat. It is so important colleagues know they can turn to GroceryAid for support with the 24/7 Helpline.”
The Helpline number is 08088 021 122
How you can get involved
“Last year 116 companies took part in GroceryAid Day, this year we need you to let colleagues know about the services and the help available – It’s simple, all we want you to do is share.
“For now, we have 3 asks:
- Take a look at our services you will be surprised at how much we offer
- Follow us on LinkedIn and ask your colleagues to do the same
- Think about how you and your team can get involved and put the date into HR, CSR and Comms diaries.
“In January we will share your GroceryAid Day Pack with everything you need to help us raise awareness.”
