The Trussell Trust

The Trussell Trust is BPCA’s chosen charity. As more people turn to food banks, your donation could help provide not only emergency food but also access to advice and support so people won’t need emergency food in the future.

You can learn more about the charity at trusselltrust.org

Trussel Trust is a registered charity in England & Wales (1110522) and Scotland (SC044246).

Terms and conditions

To be in with a chance of winning a prize, simply donate to our Just Giving page before 18:30 pm on 15 August 2025 to receive the code for our mini-league. Only the winner of the mini-league will win a prize; this will be finalised on Sunday, 24 May 2026.
