Burntisland Community Award

We were delighted to hear that the Foodbank was nominated and chosen as Group winner of the Burntisland Community Award. The council noted the difficult circumstances of our creation and the continuity of support to vulnerable people in our community. We would Iike to recognise all our volunteers who have been such a critical part of this continuity, and the wonderful generosity of the communities of Burntisland, Kinghorn and Aberdour who stepped up so quickly to support the Foodbank in its new form.
