#### Deliveroo customers raise enough for two million meals for food banks

Deliveroo customers have raised funds for more than two million meals and support
for food banks in the [Trussell Trust](https://www.trusselltrust.org/) network nationwide
customers, only ten months after launching the partnership. Hundreds of thousands
of Deliveroo customers across the UK have now raised funds to provide meals to the
Trussell Trust since April 2022 when the partnership began. In addition, the donations
have also helped fund support programmes that help people attending food banks to
maximise their incomes and break free of poverty. Customers were able to donate 
by either rounding-up their in-app food orders or making a donation at check-out.
Donations from Londoners alone provided one million meals to Trussell Trust food
banks across the capital. The funds raised in Bristol, Birmingham, and Edinburgh
provided over 40,000 meals from each city, while Deliveroo customers in Manchester
donated nearly 75,000 meals.  To celebrate achieving the campaign target earlier
than planned, Deliveroo will be matching all donations made by customers this Saturday,
4 March.

On World Wildlife Day (3 March 2023), [WWF’s](https://www.wwf.org.uk/) #WorldWithoutNature
digital activation sees brands, NGOs and sports teams from the UK and around the

taking part include Duolingo, as well as Weetabix, Old Mout Cider, Gorilla Glue,
Taskrabbit, Gymshark and BrewDog.  A number of the UK’s top football teams also 
took part, including Aston Villa, Wolves, West Brom, Huddersfield Town and Hull 
City, who will all be erasing images of nature from their logos. Other sports teams
getting involved include rugby teams Leicester Tigers and Warrington Wolves.
