The donations helped several communities🧡
Since 2020, the Glasgow Community Anchors’ Fund has awarded 49 grants supporting 27 organisations.
Among them was Maryhill Community Central Hall, which has been awarded £17,000 to support people in the area struggling to pay for heating, and the Govanhill Baths Community Trust, which received £29,493 to fund The People’s Pantry.
