In addition, this year the Foodbankathon route will go past the CBS Arena, where Coventry City FC will be playing their final match of the season. A food collection for Coventry foodbank will be held at the Arena, and CCFC supporters are encouraged to bring an item to donate.

The Foodbankathon, run by the charity Feed The Hungry UK, is inviting companies in Coventry to participate in two impactful ways:

1. Enter a team and take on the 34km challenge:

●        Gather your colleagues and form a team to walk or run a section, or the entire 34km route. This can be done with everyone in the team travelling together or as a team relay.

●        This is a fantastic opportunity for team building, promoting health and wellbeing within your company, and demonstrating your commitment to corporate social responsibility.

●        It's a chance to get out of the office, engage with the community, and make a tangible difference while having fun!

2. Become a Foodbankathon Sponsor:

●        Elevate your company's profile by becoming an official sponsor of this high-profile community event.

●        Sponsorship opportunities offer a range of benefits, including brand visibility across event materials and media coverage, recognition as a key supporter of Coventry Foodbank and an enhanced reputation within the local community, aligning  your business with a vital cause.

●        Your sponsorship will directly support Coventry Foodbank's efforts to provide emergency food and support to local people in need.

Coventry foodbank is currently supporting 500 people each week with emergency food parcels. By getting involved in the Foodbankathon, your business can play a crucial role in ensuring that no one in our city goes hungry.
