That the Parliament congratulates what it considers the fantastic work of East Renfrewshire Good Causes (ERGC), a charity that aims to make the lives of vulnerable people in the community better; notes that, among the many projects that ERGC has supported, the charity has recently helped to fund a house extension with a ramp and wet room for a parent who has a child with cerebral palsy; understands that, without this support, the family was struggling and would have been forced to take out a second mortgage; also considers that reductions in Scottish Government funding for local authorities has affected support for carers across the country, including limiting access to grant funding for additional living space; thanks Russell Macmillan, the driving force behind ERGC, for raising more than £335,000 to date for good causes, and hopes that his good work may long continue.
