The North Coast Foodbank has found a new home after it was given a temporary stay of execution at the former Citizen Advice Bureau in Largs.
The foodbank operation started in October 2014 when a group of volunteers in the town came together to try and provide a helping hand to those less fortunate.
Volunteer Frances McGinlay said: “We are moving to the Clark Memorial Church very soon - we hope to be in and operational there from Thursday 2 March (12 - 5pm), We’ll be in the former C.A.B office in Boyd Street until then.
“We’re in the church itself, in the big room upstairs that’s perfect. The minister and the church have been great and really supportive so we hope that continues and grows.”
Frances added that the Citizens Advice had been very helpful in the setting up of the foodbank, and also praised North Ayrshire Council for letting the foodbank stay on until they had found their new location.
