Musselburgh Athletic FC showed incredible community spirit on Saturday 7th March, supporting a major food collection to help local residents.
Thanks to the generosity of players, supporters, and everyone involved with the club, an incredible 336.8 kg of food was collected — the equivalent of 801 meals for local families. In addition, £269.31 was donated in cash, providing even further support during a time when many households are feeling additional pressure.
The atmosphere at Olivebank Stadium was filled with kindness, compassion, and solidarity as fans arrived with bags of donations. The response from the community was overwhelming, with East Lothian Foodbank praising the club and its supporters for their commitment to helping others.
“To everyone who donated — you were amazing. Thank you for standing with us, and for standing with your community.”
The club are looking to arrange one later this year!
