Aldi’s long running partnership with the Teenage Cancer Trust has raised £13m for the charity, latest figures from the supermarket show.

Staff at the supermarket have been fundraising for the charity since 2017, including taking part in marathon challenges and collecting donations from shoppers.

It had set a target of raising £10m by 2027, but this was reached in 2024 and it has since extended its commitment to raise £20m by 2031.

To mark its milestone of raising £13m for the charity the supermarket is making an additional donation of £13,000.

Also, staff will take part in the 'Walk With Us' challenge to mark International Nurses Day this week (12th May), walking 13,000 steps a day over two weeks – the approximate distance a nurse covers during each shift.

“Reaching £13 million is a fantastic achievement and shows what can be accomplished when colleagues and customers come together for a cause that truly matters,” said Aldi UK’s national sustainability director Liz Fox.

“The work Teenage Cancer Trust does is invaluable, and we're determined to go even further – that's why we've set ourselves the ambitious target of £20 million by 2031.”

Teenage Cancer Trust head of high value partnerships Hannah Lloyd added: “This milestone represents a significant commitment from Aldi, their colleagues and customers, and we're enormously grateful for their ongoing support.

"Every pound raised helps us fund specialist nurses, youth workers and hospital wards that make such a difference to young people facing cancer.

“This partnership is changing lives, and we're excited to build on this success together.”
