From the West Bank of Palestine to the East End of Glasgow: solidarity goes both ways. On Saturday, reps from Aida Refugee Camp were proud to support communities in Scotland by donating to the Green Brigade's food bank collection.
Big thank you to all who donated to our annual foodbank collection on Saturday. This enormous act of solidarity and generosity from the Celtic support will help those most in need this Christmas.
