We need you- Supermarket collection volunteering opportunities.

23rd April 2026

WHEN: Saturday, 6th June

TIME: 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM

WHERE: Asda Metrocentre

Supermarket Collection Day.

Gateshead foodbank is heading to the supermarket, and we need a team of friendly volunteer faces to help us make it a success. Whether you’re a great talker or happy to help with the heavy lifting, there’s a spot for you!

HOW YOU CAN HELP:

The “Chatters”

Talk to the public, spread the word about our mission, and hand out “shopping lists” of the items we need most.

The “Movers & Shakers”

Help with the manual handling and sorting of food donations as they come in.

The “Ambassadors”

Help us say a massive THANK YOU to our amazing community for their ongoing support

WHY IT MATTERS

We can’t do this without you. Every hour you give helps put food on a local family’s table. Together, we can tackle hunger in our community.
