COMPASSIONATE Inverclyde are appealing for donations to help fill their back home from hospital boxes.

Items in short supply include long life milk, tea, coffee, sugar, jam, biscuits, crackers, soup, individual breakfast cereals, tinned meat and tinned puddings.

The packages help people who are living on their own.

Donations can be dropped off at IRH every Wednesday and also at the Access centre at Ardgowan Hospice.
