Aldi Donates Nearly 140,000 Meals to UK Charities over Summer Holidays

The supermarket said the donations rose 24% to 10.9 million meals in 2026 as summer demand stayed high.

  • During the summer holidays, Aldi, in partnership with Neighbourly, donated nearly 140,000 meals to good causes, with Falkirk area branches in Camelon and Polmont contributing to the effort.
  • Nationally, Aldi redistributed 10.9 million meals in 2026, up from more than 8.8 million before the school holidays, representing a 24 per cent increase in food redistribution efforts.
  • Regional efforts in Lincolnshire and Sussex provided 48,800 and 37,800 meals respectively to charities and foodbanks throughout the school holidays.
  • School holidays bring 'additional pressure' as families face higher food costs and reduced access to free school meals, according to Steve Butterworth, CEO of Neighbourly.
  • The partnership between Aldi and Neighbourly, operating since 2019, provides charities with regular surplus food supplies year-round to support communities in need.
