That the Parliament congratulates East Lothian Roots and Fruits (ELRF), based in Elphinstone, on the outstanding success of its 2025 Christmas appeal, which delivered gifts to 231 children and 122 older residents, ensuring that families and individuals across the county were supported during the festive season; notes that the appeal was made possible solely through the generosity of the local community, with donations of toys, gifts, vouchers and festive experiences enabling families to create special Christmas memories; understands that families were additionally supported through vouchers for Christmas dinners, cinema trips, and visits to Edinburgh’s Christmas Market, with 22 families receiving fresh ingredients for Christmas dinner, and children receiving selection boxes after a planned Santa visit was cancelled due to illness; welcomes the remarkable fundraising effort at East Lothian Co-operative Bowling Club in Tranent, which raised £7,900 for the appeal, and commends the staff and volunteers of ELRF for their tireless work, dedication, and community-centred approach, which left the organisation “absolutely inundated” with donations throughout the festive period.
