To mark the occasion, B&M store colleagues were asked to nominate a local charity they thought deserved recognition for the work they do in the local community. They chose the team from North Lakes Foodbank to take centre stage and officially unveil the new B&M store.

North Lakes Foodbank is a non-profit organisation that supports individuals and families by providing emergency food supplies when it is needed most. The charity works alongside more than 125 care professionals including welfare advisors, medical teams, social workers, and other community organisations to support those facing hardship.

They collect donations from supermarkets, churches, schools, and local community groups, food is then distributed at centres located in both Allerdale and Copeland. Everyone is welcomed to the centres with a hot drink, a friendly chat, and a signpost for further help and long-term strategies.

The B&M store manager commented: “North Lakes Foodbank really stood out for us, so we wanted to give them some VIP treatment as a thank you for all the hard work that they have done. We hope that our donation can help them to continue the great work they do.”
