Breakfast Club at Academy 360 welcomes students at 8am with several choices of hot and cold breakfast which include items such as toast, porridge, bagels, cereal, overnight oats, fresh fruit and yogurts. At Academy 360 we understand the importance of healthy breakfast to start a students day. The students are able to sit with their friends or family, maybe catch up on homework or simply chat to staff before the start of their day. At Academy 360 our service is free so we welcome help and support with breakfast items from food, crockery, cutlery and electrical items such as toasters and microwaves.

Our organisation is a community‑focused initiative dedicated to improving lives, strengthening neighbourhoods, and expanding opportunities for people across Sunderland and the wider North‑East. We work across multiple social‑impact areas, including poverty alleviation, health and wellbeing, children and youth development, employability and skills, domestic abuse support, sports and recreation, digital skills, equality, diversity and inclusion, education and training, family support, community cohesion, and arts, culture and heritage. We support individuals and families experiencing hardship, food insecurity, unemployment, social isolation, domestic abuse, digital exclusion, and limited access to safe recreational or educational spaces. Our programmes include surplus‑food redistribution, wellbeing activities, youth mentoring, sports sessions, digital‑skills workshops, employability coaching, family‑support interventions, cultural activities, and inclusive community events. We work closely with schools, local authorities, partner charities, volunteers, and grassroots groups to ensure that support is accessible, dignified, and responsive to real community needs. Our organisation urgently needs surplus food donations, including fresh produce, non‑perishables, bakery items, dairy, and culturally appropriate foods. We also rely on volunteers to assist with food distribution, youth activities, digital‑skills support, sports coaching, community events, and administrative tasks. Partnerships with local businesses, funders, and service providers help us expand our reach and sustain vital programmes. Our mission is to build a healthier, safer, more inclusive community where every person—regardless of background or circumstance has the opportunity to thrive. Through practical support, education, creativity, and connection, we aim to reduce hardship, empower families, uplift young people, and strengthen community cohesion.
