Kelly Young, from Partick in Glasgow, went without after she lost her job in December 2021
A Scots mum lost two stone in the space of just six weeks after going without food to make sure her children had enough to eat.
The project has just received an award of £23,500 from the National Lottery Community Fund, where £1.5 million will be distributed to 73 groups to help with the increase in living costs. Over the last year Annexe Communities has been there for Kelly, providing advice, food parcels and fuel vouchers.
