A CHARITY which has been running for 28 years claims it has been forced to fold by the smoking ban.
Glenrothes and District Inter Club Welfare Association shut down earlier this month because of cash problems.
Over the last two decades, the association has provided wheelchairs, electric wheelchairs, nebulisers and other medical aides to people in the Glenrothes area.
And this was generously funded by regular donations from participating clubs like Warout, the Royal British Legion and Balgonie Bowling Club.
But the main donor was the CISWO Club which says it can no longer afford to help groups with funding because the ban has cost it too much money in lost takings.
