  • Motion reference: S5M-10827

That the Parliament commends the team at Cardross Pharmacy on ensuring that its customers still had access to prescriptions during the recent snowy weather; understands that Morven Reid walked the 16-mile round trip to the pharmacy from his home in Shandon and was joined by colleagues, Kerry Anne O'Keefe and Susan Sneddon, who are from Helensburgh; notes that drivers, Duncan Stirling and Richard Davies, abandoned their vehicles to deliver prescriptions on foot throughout the village; believes that the extreme weather conditions brought out the best in communities across Scotland, and thanks everyone working in the health and social care sectors who went "the extra mile" to help people and communities.
