Age Scotland has urged Glasgow City Council to reconsider its decision to axe funding for a charity that supports and feeds older people.
Glasgow Food Train is on the brink of closure after the local authority failed to extend its funding for the Govanhill-based charity that it has been supporting for the last 10 years.
It has been warned that hundreds of older people across the city face going hungry if the lifeline charity which provides shopping and meal-making services for them closes.
