Falkirk foodbank overwhelmed with donations ahead of Christmas period

A foodbank in Falkirk has been overwhelmed by donations in recent days.

Bo’ness Storehouse Foodbank took to Facebook to thank Pamela Murray from the Porridge Pot Project.

Pamela had created porridge packs which the foodbank gave clients to help them come up with new breakfast ideas at home.

She also visited during the week and donated £150 to the organisers to allow them to continue doing their important work.

The Porridge Pot Project is a food pantry which encourages local families to east a healthy breakfast, particularly before school.

Bo’ness Storehouse Foodbank also received two other donations on the run up to Christmas alongside the porridge packs.

One of these was a cheque for £500 from an anonymous donor and another was also an anonymous donation of £120.

A spokesperson from the food bank said: "Thank you all folks, it allows us to do great work in our wee town!"
