Edinburgh North East Foodbank helps local people in crisis. They are part of a nationwide network of foodbanks, supported by The Trussell Trust, working to combat poverty and hunger across the UK.

This particular charity is so close to their hearts as it directly affects family to friends of friends within the local community. They both share the same love for their neighbourhood and are delighted to come together to help raise money and awareness of the North East Edinburgh Foodbank.

The Truffle Shuffle is an exclusive pizza created by Tom Kitchin in collaboration with Civerinos and is a white pizza with 100% fior di latte mozzarella on Civerinos’ New York-style 72 hour proven pizza dough.
