The Edinburgh dog and cat home (EDCH) say the are having to provide for more foodbanks as the cost of living crisis worsens.
When the first started this process in 2019 they only supplied a handful of food banks with dry food and treats but within months their services were being required at over 22 centres across Edinburgh and the Lothians. As of today, they are now supplying 64 foodbanks from Edinburgh and the Lothians down to the Borders.
In 2019 the charity was the first organisation in Scotland to kick off the idea of supplying items to food banks across the Eastern Central Belt, after discovering that people who used foodbanks were having to share their weekly supplies with their dogs, reports Edinburgh Live.
