Lidl has introduced a new label to help those relying on food banks, the first UK supermarket to do so. It has launched the “Good To Give” trustmark to diversify the donations being given to struggling families.
Lidl shoppers looking to donate to food banks can find the label on 30 different items across all its UK stores, reports the Mirror. The signage will highlight selected long-life items that offer a greater variety of nutritional benefits.
The products chosen include tinned fruit, lentils, mackerel, noodles, and brown rice. Once picked up by a shopper, the item can then be dropped at food donation points in Lidl stores, ready for the supermarket to deliver them to food banks.
