An unsung army of heroes have been helping to make and deliver meals to vulnerable people this year and Christmas will be no different.
Glasgow-based Heart of Scotstoun will today be delivering around 80 meals to people in the community with nearly half of them pensioners.
A mass cook off began yesterday to prepare the festive dinners which will also include soup, a pudding and a copy of today's Christmas Eve Herald special edition.
Centre manager Amanda Quinn said: "The dinners will be ready to collect so people have something nice to eat on Christmas Day and if you can’t manage down we will deliver to those who need a bit of help."
