Catrine's community larder celebrated its first birthday last week.

Ma Broon's Larder was opened in the A.M. Brown Institute in the village in February 2023 by the Catrine Community Trust.

And it has provided vital help for those in need from day one.

A spokesperson for the Community Trust said: "We cannot believe that the community larder has been open for a full year.

"We would like to thank everyone for their support, including Ayrshire Food Hub, East Ayrshire Council, DTAs and the Catrine community.

"However, none it it would have been possible without our amazing volunteers. A massive thanks you everyone for everything you do."

The larder is open on Tuesdays from 2.30pm to 4pm and on Thursdays from 5.30-7pm.

Feel free to drop in for a wee cuppa and a blether.
