Premier Irvine Late Shop donated Easter eggs to the children’s ward at Crosshouse hospital and to Irvine community hubs over the Easter weekend.

The hubs distributed these around Irvine to children and young people to perk them up and ensure the holiday weekend was positive.

Store owner Jatinder Shergill, said: “We’ve been part of the community for 35 years and at this time the community needs to stick together.”

Hub staff thanked the store for their kindess.

Scotland is in lockdown. Shops are closing and newspaper sales are falling fast. We’re not exaggerating when we say that the future of the Irvine Times, and the vital local news service we’ve provided since 1873, is under threat.

Please consider supporting the Irvine Times in whatever way you can – by paying just 90p for a copy of the paper, when you’re shopping for essential supplies for yourself and others, or by subscribing to our e-edition
here.

Thanks – and stay safe.
