That the Parliament congratulates Matthew from ASDA’s Stenhousemuir store, on successfully climbing Mount Kilimanjaro to raise funds for charity; understands that Matthew climbed Africa’s tallest peak to raise funds for Dig Deep, an organisation that believes that every resident in Kenya should have access to the provision of clean water, safe toilets and good hygiene; notes that Matthew raised an impressive £3,457, which, it understands, will be utilised by Dig Deep in support of its work; recognises that, alongside Matthew, other fundraising climbers have also raised money in support of Dig Deep, taking the collective total raised to over £70,000; congratulates Matthew on his successful climb of Mount Kilimanjaro, and wishes him all the best in the future.
