Overview

Voucher collection

The Sainsbury’s Active Kids voucher collection scheme, now in its thirteenth year, kicks off every year in January. Customers collect vouchers when shopping and donate them to their local school or club, which can exchange them for equipment and experiences.

So far the scheme has invested £185 million and recruited ambassadors from the world of health and fitness such as footballer Daniel Sturridge and Paralympian Jonnie Peacock to promote a healthier way of life.

Charity of the Year

Every year they work together with their customers and colleagues to support a local cause at the heart of the local community. These are holistic partnerships that last for the whole year and include a range of support such as awareness-raising and fundraising in store, volunteering and donations.
