Beans on Toast Challenge: Make a Meal, Make a Difference

12th May 2025

Baked beans on toast

Would you swap your dinner for beans on toast for just one night? Two tins of beans and a loaf of bread cost under £2, while an average meal for a family of four costs over £6. This small swap saves £4, allowing you to donate to North Bristol & South Glos Foodbank to help local families facing hardship.

A surprising 8% of residents in Bristol & South Glos face food insecurity every year. Last year, we provided emergency food to 8,022 people- 1 in 50 people in our local area. We served 137,000 emergency meals, with 3,000 children among those we helped.

Taking part is simple:

  1. Have beans on toast for dinner one night
  2. Save the money you would have spent on a regular meal
  3. Donate your £4+ savings to North Bristol & South Glos Foodbank
  4. Share your meal on social media with #BeansOnToastChallenge

Every donation, no matter how small, makes a real difference to people facing hardship in our community. Your £4 contribution helps ensure no one goes hungry.

Together, we can turn a simple meal into a powerful act of kindness. Will you join us?
