The manager of a West Belfast foodbank has been overwhelmed by the response to plans for a new garden to grow vegetables, which can then be shared with people in the community.
Foodstock is in the process of opening a community garden at its Andersonstown Road base, which will further help supply individuals and families availing of foodbank services with fresh vegetables and with that, more healthy and nutritious meal options.
Foodstock, which also manages a pre-loved school uniform outlet, issued an appeal on social media at the weekend for soil to assist with growing or for flowers to brighten up the garden, which generated a great response.
