As organisations return from the summer break they'll be encouraged to make use of these donation collection points.  
If you'd like to help out by collecting the donations from time to time and delivering them to the Food Banks in Barrhead and Stewarton,
please contact Alison and hopefully we can make up a rota of deliverers!
