Charity Clydesdale Foodbank via the Co-op, Biggar |
Clydesdale Foodbank A local Skirling resident has been in touch with the organisers and volunteers from Clydesdale Foodbank to see how Skirling households can contribute food to the foodbank more usefully via the Co-op in Biggar. We now have a contact in Ben Waine, who collects from the Co-op every Wednesday at around 10:45. If you would like to help out by allowing Ben to shop for needed items, you can contact him on 07772 378 597 and meet him at the Co-op on a Wednesday, where he will spend to your agreed limit on such things a fresh food for the foodbank. This would take no more than 10 minutes of your time and be very gratefully received. |
