SHOPPERS across Inverclyde are being urged to pick up some extra items to help people in need this winter. 

The Tesco stores in Greenock and Port Glasgow will be holding food collections from November 30 until December 2.

Items donated will go to FareShare and Trussell Trust and will be distributed to people in need across Inverclyde. 

The top 10 most-needed items are UHT and powdered milk, tinned meat and fish, sponge/rice pudding, long-life fruit juice, cooking sauces, tinned vegetables, tinned and dried soup, rice and noodles, cereal and porridge, and tea and coffee.

Ken Murphy, Tesco Group chief executive, said: "Even the smallest donation can make a real difference to someone else’s Christmas."
