Shops are closing. Newspaper sales are falling. But we’ve chosen to keep our coverage of the Coronavirus crisis free because it’s so important that the people of Glasgow stay informed during this difficult time.

To help us get through this, we’re asking readers who can afford it to contribute either £3, £5 or £8 a month to the Glasgow Times.

If you choose to sign up, we’ll also take away all the adverts – and deliver a digital version of the print paper to your device. Click here to help Save Your Times: www.glasgowtimes.co.uk/subscribe

A TOLLCROSS chippie is offering free meals to the elderly and vulnerable.

Captain's Kitchen on Tollcross Road asked its customers to nominate someone they know for the surprise meal.

One woman expressed delight after her 77-year-old mum received a fish supper.

She said the chip shop's offer made her mum's night.
