At The Bread and Butter Thing, the food bags might get people through the door, but it’s the warm welcome, the chat and the cuppa that keep so many coming back. That’s why Big Brew Time has become a mainstay of our food clubs. It is simple, it is friendly, and it makes a world of difference. Discover how Big Brew Time at The Bread and Butter Thing turns food collections into community moments with free tea, conversation, and connection.

The Bread and Butter Thing member, James features in Sainsbury’s & Comic Relief’s A Recipe For… vodcast, sharing how food and community changed his life and sharing sausage and mash with Hairy Biker, Si King.

When we launched our A Slice of Bread and Butter podcast, the goal wasn’t fame, downloads, or slick production values. We wanted to create a space where the voices that are so often overlooked could finally be heard. Now, with our British Podcast Awards Silver award win, it’s wonderful to see that commitment recognised, not as a personal achievement, but as a sign of the value of listening to everyday voices.
