The rising numbers of people using a local food pantry is leading to concerns about the cost of the service which will become even more vital in the winter months.
Dennyloanhead Community Hall, which provides support to vulnerable people in their area, receives £11,000 from Falkirk Council towards its overall running costs of £40,000.
Members of Falkirk Council's external Scrutiny Committee heard on Thursday that the hall - formerly known as the Archibald Russell Centre - is doing a vital job and has been operating an emergency food provision to over 63 families per week from 1 April 2021 to 31 March 2022.
