AJ Bell Great Scottish Run Half Marathon 2023 · 1 October 2023 ·

In the summer of 2013 local charities and churches in Rutherglen and Cambuslang became aware of the levels of food poverty in the area, and began to plan what could be done to address this. Rutherglen and Cambuslang Foodbank opened its first distribution centre in the centre of Rutherglen in December 2013. The organisation grew opening a second distribution centre in Whitlawburn in May 2014, and a third in Cambuslang in February of 2015. The distribution centres and warehouse are staffed entirely by volunteers, and we rely on the generosity of the public in Rutherglen and Cambuslang to enable us to continue to provide this vital lifeline.

Story

We invite you to join us in making a difference in the lives of those in need by supporting the Rutherglen and Cambuslang Food Bank. We, James Bowles and Craig Hunter have come together with a shared passion for helping others and are taking on a half-marathon challenge to raise funds and awareness for this essential cause.

On the 1st of October 2023, we will be running the Aj Bell Great Scottish run half-marathon to support the incredible work of Rutherglen and Cambuslang Food Bank. Our goal is not only to complete the race but also to raise much-needed funds that will directly benefit individuals and families facing food insecurity in our community.

Rutherglen and Cambuslang Food Bank play a crucial role in providing essential food supplies to those who are struggling to make ends meet. Unfortunately, the demand for their services has grown exponentially over the past few years, and they require our support more than ever.

By contributing to our JustGiving page dedicated to the Rutherglen and Cambuslang Food Bank, you'll not only be supporting their ongoing efforts but also motivating us during our challenging race. Your generous donation, no matter how big or small, will go a long way in providing nutritious meals and essential items to those in need.

Let's unite in this noble cause and spread kindness and compassion to those who need it the most. Your support will empower the food bank to continue its vital work, ensuring that nobody in our community goes to bed hungry.
