Edinburgh TV star Gail Porter to use her own experience to help those in poverty

Edinburgh TV star Gail Porter has announced a new career move as she has teamed up to raise awareness of poverty data amid the ongoing cost of living crisis.

The 52-year-old has explained why she doesn't regret opening up about her past struggles as she aims to help the British public through one of the toughest periods they will ever have to face.

The TV legend has teamed up with Virgin Media 02 and Good Things Foundation, saying the new campaign drive is "extremely important to me." During the 90s and 00s, Gail was one of the nation's most recognisable figures on television and has enjoyed a lengthy career in the spotlight, reports the Mirror.
