Hundreds of people are being helped via a new Glasgow Helps phoneline for residents struggling during the coronavirus pandemic.

Help getting essential medicines and delivery of food were the most common requests.

Thousands of Glasgow residents have already volunteered to help with tasks including having a daily phone call with someone who needs to self-isolate.

Ian Bruce , Chief Executive with GCVS said: “GCVS and the voluntary sector have been working tirelessly with Volunteer Glasgow and public services to ensure we act collectively to help people.
