A vital service that provides baby goods to struggling parents across Lanarkshire has been forced to close after a flood destroyed their premises over the weekend.
Volunteers at Baby Bank Scotland, housed within the North Stand at Hamilton Accies Football Club, were devastated to learn that a burst water tank had swamped their unit, leaving thousands of items completely ruined.
Goods destroyed included prams, cots, car seats, covers and clothes as the water tank in a room above cracked, leaking gallons of water through the ceiling, engulfing the Baby Bank room below.
