That the Parliament congratulates Skye and Lochalsh Young Carers on reaching its 25th anniversary; notes that, since its establishment in 2000, when it supported six young carers per week, it has grown to the point where over 65 young carers receive support across the region; acknowledges what it sees as the vital support provided from the local community, which donates over 730 volunteer hours per week, allowing the service to offer over 200 hours of one-to-one input each week, and looks forward to the service achieving many more anniversaries of serving the community of Skye and Lochalsh.
