A local grocer on Edinburgh’s Ferry Road has opened up about the despair and poverty hitting their neighbourhood as the cost of living crisis begins to bite.
Em and Luna, co-founders of The Gull’s Grocery, have said there is genuine fear in the community about what will happen this winter, with food stability and heating costs being chief among concerns.
Em and Luna said: “People are genuinely scared for themselves, their loved ones, the elderly and the infirm. Much like when Covid started, there is a real feeling among the community that not all of us will be here when all is said and done.”
