Demand for food donations at Everlasting has increased massively in following the COVID pandemic, with the number of people visiting each week increasing from around 40 to 100 in the last year.
"The local people we support love having KFC on offer - they eat what they can on site and bring a little bag and fill that as well. We collect the chicken every week from the teams at KFC restaurants on London Road and in Forge Retail Park – it’s great for us and is easy to arrange as everything is ready for us when we arrive.
"Hearing the impact that local heroes like Keisha are having in and around Glasgow just spurs us on to better support them in their incredible work. What’s more, our team members at London Road and Forge Retail Park really value seeing our surplus chicken go to such a good home.
