  • Motion type: Standard Motion
  • Motion reference: S6M-19351

That the Parliament congratulates the North Glasgow Community Food Initiative's Milton Food Hub and Community Garden, in the north of Glasgow, on being awarded £157,000 from the Scottish Land Fund to support the purchase of St Andrew’s Methodist Church; acknowledges that this fund moves the Milton Food Hub and Community Garden closer to being able to secure the purchase of the church building it has operated from since 2019, retaining it under community ownership and allowing the building to be fully repurposed to become a multi-use space for food, wellbeing, training and social activities; recognises the hard work and passion of the organisers to achieve this milestone, and wishes them all the best in their development of the church building.
