A campaign to provide an Easter Sunday meal for Dumfries families struggling with the cost-of-living crisis needs to raise £800 by April 7.
The aim of community champion Lee Vann-Wakelin’s Easter Gesture challenge is to raise £2,000 – and if he can hit that target a mystery benefactor has offered to treble the amount to £6,000.
That would be enough for 300 of the most needy families in the town to get the ingredients for a free meal to enjoy on April 9.
