Newcastle United co-owner Jamie Reuben makes matchday visit to foodbank

Newcastle United co-owner Jamie Reuben this afternoon paid the Newcastle Foodbank stall a visit.

Reuben, whose Reuben Foundation are match-funding any cash raised by the foodbank on a matchday this season, spoke with volunteers at the stall, including the likes of Bill Corcoran and Steve Hastie.

Speaking to NewcastleWorld, Reuben said: “To see all of these volunteers here, giving up their day is incredible. I want to say thank you to all of the incredible Newcastle United fans for supporting the foodbank.”

Reuben’s RB Media & Sports bought a 10% share in the football club last month, along with PCP Capital Partners and the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia.
