The Bread and Butter Thing (Byker)

The Bread and Butter Thing (Byker) is an affordable mobile food club. They offer low cost weekly shopping bags. It’s cheaper than buying food in shops. The bags contain fruit and vegetables, fridge favourites and cupboard staples. It’s free to become a member. They accept Healthy Start vouchers and vegetarian options are available.

The food bags change each day.  this means  you won’t save the same amount of money each time. You will get  new foods to try and the cost of the bag may be reduced if they have less food available.

To get a food bag you must:

  1. Book your food club order in advance
  2. Text 07860 063304 with your full name, postcode and the where you’ll be collecting from – BYKER or visit the members section of the website
  3. Select the size of your food bag (vegetarian options are available):  Individual is £5, Family is £8.50, Large Family is £17
  4. You’ll be sent a text every Wednesday to confirm if you would like to place an order that week. Reply ‘YES’ by 10am the next day to secure your shopping.
  5. Collect and pay for your goods from ACANE in Byker at 2pm Friday. (someone can collect on your behalf and they accept Healthy Start Vouchers)
