GroceryAid Day takes place on Thursday 9 May and is the annual awareness day of our industry charity GroceryAid and it’s the ideal opportunity to let your colleagues know about the free, confidential support that is available.
From posters and leaflets to wallet cards and stickers, there’s everything you need to make all of your colleagues aware of the free and confidential financial, practical and emotional support that is available to them, should they need it.
Thursday 9 May will see this year’s annual GroceryAid Day help elevate the awareness of our industry charity in stores and businesses across the UK – and GroceryAid wants your business to be one of them.
The special day offers you the chance to join hundreds of organisations in letting your colleagues know about the charity’s free and confidential financial, emotional and practical services available to them 24/7, 365 days a year.
Colleagues can access GroceryAid’s services and support from the first day of their employment. After just six months of continuous employment, if colleagues have experienced a drop in income, they may be eligible for a non-repayable financial grant.

If they need immediate emotional support, then can call GroceryAid’s FREE and confidential Helpline, which is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year on 08088 021122. Their call will be answered by a trained counsellor who can either give them immediate support or signpost them to another GroceryAid service that may help. More than 200 languages are also supported through the Helpline, on request.
Support and further advice are also available through the website, groceryaid.org.uk/get-help. The website has an accessibility toolbar which translates the content into over 100 different languages, as well as text to speech in 60 languages.
For regular updates about the support available and updates on financial grants such as School Essentials Grant, follow the charity on Facebook or Instagram.
All of GroceryAid’s services are completely free and confidential and they do not disclose any details back to the charity. Their emotional and practical support is also available to spouses, partners and dependants.
GroceryAid Day is a great way to help you ensure that your colleagues can reach out to GroceryAid for support.
