Readers Letters: VisitScotland to blame for campervan chaos

Joseph Thomson bequeathed money for a trust fund to be set up in the 1770s with the aim to help those where food was scarce. The Edinburgh fund went on to help families for 200 years and was still offering some form of food parcel or vouchers in to the 1950 and 60s.
