Larbert Rotary’s boost for Falkirk families

This year for the first time the scheme (which involves filling old handbags with useful household items) included toiletries for men.

Altogether a total of 232 people will each receive one of the bags in days to come.

The bags were all delivered to Falkirk Foodbank and Home-Start Falkirk to be given out to local people as Christmas gifts over the festive period.

A spokesperson for Rotary said: “All the bags are donated and the generosity of all donors is very much appreciated by the club. Our thanks go to everyone who supported this initiative”.
