Major Heather Coles, Salvation Army church leader in Kirkcaldy, said: “This new building will enable us to develop and expand our services for children, families and older people. Our plans for Kirkcaldy underline our commitment to the town and to the people we serve.”
September will see Salvation Army members, friends, and volunteers collecting around Kirkcaldy to raise money for its Big Collection fundraising campaign.
Last year, communities around the UK raised £1.6 million and every penny donated goes towards supporting someone who desperately needs and deserves help.
