Volunteers are pleading with residents to donate non-perishable food items after they were forced to throw out most of their larder after covid restrictions were eased.
The Girdle Toll Parish Church foodbank will start accepting donations on Friday, August 5 in a bid to restock their community cupboard as many items were ultimately binned after going past their sell-by-date while volunteers were fighting covid.
Volunteer Elma Campbell hopes the Irvine community will get behind the initiative which will be fully open to those in need in September.
