Greggs staff and customers are highly enthusiastic fundraisers for the Greggs Foundation itself and other time limited appeals such as BBC Children in Need.
Greggs plc is a corporate partner of BBC Children in Need Appeal (www.bbc.co.uk/pudsey). Greggs has supported the Children in Need Appeal each year since 2006, and in 2011 an amazing £1,001,052 was raised for the charity. Look out for BBC Children in Need 2012 this November. You are likely to see our shop staff dressed a bit differently (to say the least) for a week or so and Pudsey inspired products and merchandise will appear again, all to support BBC Children in Need, a fabulous charity which very much supports people in need in our communities.
In 2011 the Foundation had its second fundraising week, raising a fantastic £84,000 for the Greggs Foundation. Keep your eyes peeled this summer for more fundraising stories and events raising money for the Greggs Foundation.
Greggs shops can fundraise for a charity of their choice. Sometimes a group of shops will decide to fundraise for a specific cause to maximise the benefit. If you would like to recommend a charity, speak to the shop manager in your local Greggs store.
