“Fife Gingerbread offers so much to many people within our communities and gives single parents and families the support that they desperately need. They have given valuable support to many of my constituents when they needed it most.
“I also finally got to meet the charity’s mascot Gingey, although sadly Jacqui missed the photo opportunity. It’s amazing how she always seems to leave the office just before Gingey appears, then she comes back in just after Gingey has left.”
Jacqui added: “A lovely and warm welcome was received from Peter having Fife Gingerbread recently moved into his local constituency.
