  • Date lodged: Tuesday, 09 April 2024
  • Motion reference: S6M-12745

That the Parliament congratulates Mother India, in Glasgow, for providing free curries to attendees at Maggie's Glasgow's quiz night, which was held at the charity's base on the grounds of Gartnavel General Hospital; notes that the charity is known for providing professional support to people with a cancer diagnosis in the family, which includes support for individuals who have cancer and support for their family and friends; understands that the restaurant owner, Monir Muhammed, and his brother, Bashir, have helped Maggie's with its quiz event curry on two occasions as they recognised that bringing people together for a fun event like a curry and quiz night gives those who use the centre the opportunity to bring their friends and family along to experience Maggie’s; further understands that Maggie’s is grateful for the support of the team at Mother India and that every penny raised on the night will go directly to the running of Maggie’s Glasgow; believes that this will help it to support many more people to live their lives as fully as possible, and acknowledges that the quiz night raised a total of £3,200 to support people with cancer and their families.
