More than 18,000 meals have been donated to people in need across Fife.

Aldi stores in the region helped families during the summer holidays by donating surplus food to charities and foodbanks through the Neighbourly platform.

Luke Emery, national sustainability director at Aldi UK, said: "We are proud to continue supporting incredible causes across the country this summer, helping to provide fresh, wholesome food to those who need it most.

"School holidays can be a challenging time for many families, and this summer we’re continuing our efforts to provide support where we can through our partnership with Neighbourly."

Aldi has partnered with Neighbourly since 2019, and has donated more than 8.8 million meals across the UK so far this year.

Steve Butterworth, CEO of Neighbourly, said: "Summer holidays represent one of the busiest times of the year for charities and food banks, and this year was no different.

"Aldi’s generous donations played a key role in helping support families, and our partnership continues to make a meaningful difference to those who need it most."
