Amazing volunteers from New Cumnock Community Larder Hub have been preparing meals and delivering food parcels to support their local community during the COVID-19 crisis.

Youngsters Alex, Declan and baby Marcus also took the time to help out and look after their local area by litter picking in New Cumnock.

In addition to this, volunteers have been working in the New Cumnock Community Garden, keeping the community spaces clean and tidy.

Well done to all of the volunteers who have shown endless dedication over the past few weeks.

Scotland is in lockdown, shops are closing and newspaper sales are falling fast. We’re not exaggerating when we say that the future of the Cumnock Chronicle, and the vital local news service we’ve provided since 1901 is under threat.

Please consider supporting the Cumnock Chronicle  in whatever way you can – by paying just 90p for a copy of the paper, when you’re shopping for essential supplies for yourself and others, or by subscribing to our e-edition here.

Thanks - and stay safe.
