Morrisons to give away 60,000 FREE pizza-making kits to families in need this half term

Morrisons is giving away 60,000 pizza-making kits across the UK this half term to help fight  holiday hunger. 

Colleagues working on Morrisons pizza counters in stores will each prepare 30 pizza kits per  day, which will then be distributed to local schools and community groups to help support  families in need via Morrisons Community Champions. 

Each kit includes ready to roll pizza dough, tomato sauce, grated cheese and either peppers  and sweetcorn or pepperoni and ham depending on whether families would like a meat or  vegetarian option.  

The kits also contain a recipe card with cooking instructions and details of a competition that  families can enter to be in with the chance of winning £100 Morrisons vouchers. All they  have to do is post a picture of their pizza tagging Morrisons on Instagram and include the  hashtag #PizzaKitWin. 

Morrisons pizza-kit donations follow the donation of over 75,000 lunchboxes to school  children over the previous half term break in October 2020. 

Sian Ayling, Head of Food To Go at Morrisons, said: “We want to ensure that as many children as possible have access to the food they need  over the half term break, which is why we’re offering these pizza kits to those who need them in our local communities and would encourage as many people as possible to get  involved with our competition.’ 

Morrisons also offers customers the option of buying their own ‘Pick Up Packs’, which are  also distributed to local food banks, schools and community groups. 

The packs’ cost between £1 and £5 and contain a nutritionally balanced mix of food products  and other essentials that have been requested by the local community groups according to  their needs.

The pre-packed parcels are available at the front of all Morrisons stores and are  paid for at the checkout. The pack is then put aside in our dedicated donation areas ready to  be passed on the local food banks and community groups.
