As a convenience retailer it’s really important to us that our stores are truly embedded within the communities that they serve. We are proud to make a difference in our communities every day.
In the last six years, for Local and National charities you’ve helped us raise:
Carriers for causes is a local grants scheme available to any community, charity or not for profit group within 2 miles of a One Stop store.

All our stores understand the importance of supporting local good causes through a variety of instore activities. Last year you helped us raise £804,968.
We’re proud to be able to give back to the communities which we work with in many ways. Such as foodbanks, where we collect household groceries from our staff and customers to donate back to local food banks. Also, clothes banks, where selected stores have collection points supporting the Salvation Army. Last year, with your support we donated 25,915 meals.
Our colleagues love to take an active role within the local community through volunteering. Last year our colleagues volunteered 37,812 hours in their local communities.
We partnered with Bisto to host a special Christmas lunch for a special community.
