The Trussell Trust - we can end the need for food banks. Over the next five months, your team will be completing various activities to fundraise and raise awareness for the Trussell Trust, Bank of America’s 2021/22 UK Charity Partner.

Since the beginning of the pandemic, usage of food banks have increased 47% and more than half of these additional users were people who had never previously used a food bank in their lives.

Through completing these challenges, you can help to ensure these food banks continue to run and provide an important service, but also be part of the long-term movement towards a hunger-free future where food banks are no longer needed.

We recognise that as new joiners you may have missed out on certain opportunities to network with your fellow analysts, which can be very important at the beginning of your career. Therefore, we encourage you to use this initiative as a way to get to know your class and build those connections across the firm.

And remember, we will be awarding the best performing teams and individuals at the celebration event, so don’t hesitate to bring out your competitive side.

Thank you for being part of this initiative and let the games begin!
