David Torrance MSP opened the newly rebranded Avens convenience shop on Overton Road in Kirkcaldy on Saturday.

He was joined by Fife Flyers including netminder Shane Owen, Michael Cichy and Austin Faley, along with team mascot, Geordie Munro.

Mr Torrance said: “I am so pleased to see investment in the local area, especially seeing as convenience stores are under huge pressure at the moment. It was a pleasure to meeting everyone on the day – the staff were so enthusiastic and it was wonderful to see funds being raised on the day for a local charity.”
