I have been volunteering with CCG for 1 year now. It’s a great environment and I have wonderful colleagues. We all do amazing work in the community and learn a variety of new skills.

I was introduced to it by a 3rd party at the start of lockdown and, in addition to being offered help, I was invited to volunteer. I was so impressed by the commitment and compassion of those who run it, and the many volunteers, towards the well-being of their fellow human beings of all ethnicities, creeds, etc that, even though I am now back at my 7 day a week business, I still try to find the time to help out whenever I can . . . The CCG grows in your heart and helps to feed the soul.

Since I joint CCG I earn skills, I improved my English, so found that there are still a huge needs to hand others who are in needs, I am part such team that CCG helped me when I required. Thanks everyone. Since, I joint, I helped some of my fellows through CCG, also I found great friends that always make me happy and encouraging me to be more dynamic and have my motivation for a better future.

The Crookston Community Group's crisis food delivery service targets ca. 500 deprived individuals per week. These guys deliver foods to the most needy people who have difficulty with going to the local foodbank within Glasgow. They do an important work for the community. Good job, guys!
