Cousins Furniture is proud to announce its continued partnership with the Black Country Foodbank for the second year running, reaffirming its commitment to helping local residents during the ongoing cost of living crisis.
The company has donated food and toiletries to provide essential support for individuals and families in need. Local employees at Cousins Furniture and its head office in Oldbury have contributed 15 boxes of food and toiletries to the Black Country Foodbank.
Lucy Jordan, Customer Service Representative at the head office, shared, “Head office staff here at Cousins wanted to help others during the cost of living crisis and give someone else a better Christmas.” Founded with deep-rooted ties to the Black Country, dating back to Cole's of Bilston, Cousins Furniture is dedicated to making a positive impact on the local community.
As a major retailer in the home furnishing industry, the company recognises the importance of supporting residents during difficult times. The ongoing global crisis has heightened the need for assistance, and Cousins Furniture is eager to contribute to the well-being of those in the Black Country.
The Black Country Foodbank has been a lifeline for individuals and families facing food insecurity, and by partnering with the organisation, Cousins aims to further its efforts in creating meaningful change. "We are thrilled to once again partner with the Black Country Foodbank, an organisation that shares our passion for supporting the community," said Robert Shotton, Chairman and Founder of Cousins Furniture. "Our ties to the Black Country run deep, and we believe in the strength of community spirit. This fundraising is a testament to our commitment to creating positive change and addressing the immediate needs of our community."
Cousins Furniture encourages its customers, partners, and the broader community to join this initiative by contributing in any way they can, whether through financial donations, non-perishable food items, or volunteering time.
Every effort plays a role in building a stronger, more resilient Black Country.
