A pensioner who has clocked up a decade of volunteering has made it his mission to help people facing food poverty.
Thoughtful Stan Esson, 81, signed up to help out at East Renfrewshire Foodbank when it opened in 2013. The Barrhead man was inspired to start volunteering following his retirement.
However, he admits he did not think he would still be helping to provide emergency food aid 10 years later – with the need for food banks rising dramatically in recent years.
