Kimberley has been part of #TeamScran for nearly two years now. Yes, she has gained #qualifications and #workexperience, but more importantly the #confidence to thrive.

BUT her stand out moment will always be "meeting Isa from Still Game"! @McCarryJane

I was one of those 'neglected white kids.' Ive supported 'white working class kids' for 2 decades.
YES it's a disgrace. NO you don't get to blame black people owning their rights too. Failing poor kids was a political choice WAY before the term white privilege existed. NEXT! 🙄

I say "love you bye" to people. Colleagues, shop staff, young people at work, on phone, meetings, everyone.

For those saying it's weird, if people can hate for no reason, I can say love for no reason!

Love you bye x

Here's a #ScranStory of how we help. Feedback like this blows us away:

"To my saviours at Scran...I'm a war child & didn't have much food, so you become grateful for what you get... Thank you for the terrific meals, they are perfectly cooked."
