A lifeline Glasgow charity that faced closure this month has been rescued by the National Lottery.
Food Train Glasgow ensures hundreds of elderly people across the city do not go hungry. However, their future was plunged into crisis after Glasgow City Council, which funded the bulk of the charity’s operations since it launched a decade ago, rejected its latest three-year funding application in January.
The National Lottery Community Fund has offered the team a £75,000 grant, saving them from immediate closure.
