Recipient Org: Description The principle activity of the Charity was to provide a central point in Stranraer where people over the age of sixty, and also disabled or disadvantaged members can come to meet and socialise. We provide breakfast with a hot meal at lunchtime and activities to help members socialise, in order to reduce their isolation, because many members live in remote areas out with Stranraer. Due to Covid restrictions we had to close the Day Centre so we purchased the equipment to be able to offer a meals on wheels service which we have been delivering for three years. These are taken out by our staff using the adapted minibus we had purchased in 2019, through our own fundraising initiatives. This service has proved so vital that many people are now receiving these meals up to five days a week. and we deliver approximately 40 meals per day with on average an additional 30 meals eaten in the Day Centre itself plus the local Skills Station collect approximately 12 meals daily.
