That the Parliament acknowledges Auld Hoose landlord, Mark O’Callaghan, and the Letham4All charity based in Perth for its "Give a kid a quid" fundraising efforts; understands that the charitable endeavour aims to give a gift to children in Perth who might receive very little for Christmas, and that gift bags containing Christmas crackers, cuddly toys, colouring books, pencils, fruit, sweets and mince pies will be delivered to over 200 families across Perth on 23 December by charity volunteers and contributors, including from the Giraffe Cafe; notes that the campaign raised more than £2,000 in 2021, and over £800 in 2022, thanks to donations from visitors to the Auld Hoose, and from the ticket sales of regular stand-up comedy events; commends all involved for this community project, and thanks Letham4All and its partners for the continuation of their meaningful and admirable local work.
