Mars Food teams up with Marcus Rashford

Mars Food, home of popular consumer food brands such as Dolmio and Uncle Ben’s, has joined forces with Marcus Rashford’s Child Poverty Task Force in the effort to #endchildfoodpoverty.

The task force, also supported by brands such as Kellogg’s, Heinz and Deliveroo, will support key policy recommendations put forward to the government calling for better equality in the UK’s food system which has been worsened by the Covid-19 pandemic.

“The addition of Mars Food strengthens our messaging and offers us a greater platform for voices to be heard,” said Marcus Rashford. “I am proud that this task force is committed to supporting some of the most vulnerable children in the UK. We must protect and support the next generation.” 

“We are proud to stand alongside Marcus during this moment and show our support for the campaign,” said Craig Sargeant, General Manager, Mars Food. “We know we have a platform to elevate this important social issue and we believe our voice can help make a difference to families who are trapped in poverty.”
