That the Parliament congratulates Craig Lowrie, who is from Galashiels, on completing his charity running tour of Borders towns and raising £7,000; understands that Craig completed a 10km run in 12 Borders towns over the festival season to raise money for the festivals that had to be cancelled due to COVID-19; notes that Craig dedicated the challenge to his sister, Donna Cameron, who died in a road collision in 2019 and that he will also be donating some of the money to the Borders General Hospital; commends Craig for his hard work in completing this challenge, and thanks him for raising the money to support future Borders festivals.
