At the end of this month, GroceryAid Day provides the perfect opportunity for you to help make sure your team knows about the free and confidential support that our industry charity can offer them.
Over the last four or five years, more industry colleagues than ever have been made aware of the fantastic financial, emotional and practical support available from GroceryAid, all of it free and entirely confidential.
The GroceryAid Scotland committee have done a brilliant job of helping raise awareness of the charity but there’s still plenty of work to do – and you can play your part by helping promote GroceryAid Day which takes place on 30 April.
All you have to do is order your free pack on in-store printed materials and make sure everyone on your team sees them. It couldn’t be simpler.
GroceryAid Day is the one day of the year where the industry comes together to raise awareness of its industry charity and colleagues across Scotland will be working with you to help make sure as many colleagues as possible know that there is help available if they need it – and it’s help that they’ve earned.
GroceryAid’s support is 24/7, 365 days a year and the charity wants every industry colleague to know about support that’s available to them.
The printed materials include posters, leaflets, wallet cards and stickers – and you can visit the GroceryAid website to order them.
Checkout Scotland is back!
As the flagship event of the GroceryAid Scotland Committee, the Checkout Scotland music festival has rapidly become a highlight of the annual local retailing calendar – and it’s back for 2026.
Checkout Scotland 2026 will once again take place at BAaD in Glasgow and is scheduled for 27 August. Organisers will soon be announcing the line-up for the event, and it promises to be an absolute banger of an evening once again.
To enquire about sponsorship or tickets, please get in touch with Checkout Co-Chair Antony Begley at abegley@55north.com.
