A generous benefactor has handed a £5,000 boost to a campaign to put the finishing touches to a new centre for older people in Dumfries.
The anonymous donation is the biggest so far in Food Train’s drive to raise £15,000 to kit out a lounge area in its new headquarters and community hub.
Work is ongoing to transform former council offices in English Street as plans are put in place for fundraising activities to create a place which is welcoming, comforting and will help improve lives.
