Donations are being sought by Gala Cricket Club for a Christmas Food Bank Collection to support families in need of some help this festive season.

The collection takes place this Saturday (16 December) from 9am to 12noon at the club’s Meigle Park Pavilion, at the top of Manse Street.

The club is looking for non-perishable food items from supporters, members and the local community. 

In addition, if anyone can provide small value Tesco or Asda vouchers, which will also be provided to families via the Galashiels Food Bank.
