SLR Publisher 55 North has been presented with a GroceryAid Bronze Award in recognition of its support and fundraising efforts for the industry charity throughout 2023.
The GroceryAid Awards is an inclusive annual programme allowing organisations, both large and small, to demonstrate how they support GroceryAid, and in turn industry colleagues.
Kieran Hemsworth, Chief Executive at GroceryAid, said: “These organisations have helped us help more colleagues than ever before, at a time when they need our support.
“In 2022/23 we provided over 40,000 incidents of support to industry colleagues, which represented a 44% year on year increase. This reflects the impact of the cost-of-living crisis as well as our joint effort to drive awareness of GroceryAid’s welfare offer.”
The charity provides emotional, practical support, and financial advice to anyone working in the grocery industry from the first day of their employment. Colleagues can call GroceryAid’s free and confidential Helpline (08088 021 122), which is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
