  • Submitted by: Alex Rowley, Mid Scotland and Fife, Scottish Labour.
  • Date lodged: Monday, 21 December 2020
  • Motion reference: S5M-23767

That the Parliament commends the work of everyone at Kinross-shire Day Centre for the amazing job they have been doing throughout the COVID-19 crisis to support older people; understands that the organisation normally provides a first-class, welcoming, safe and homely atmosphere for older members and has done so over the last 40 years; recognises that, like many organisations across the country, the pandemic has impacted on the centre's normal day-to-day running; praises the centre for providing meal deliveries at home every day, daily bingo numbers, weekly quizzes, but, most importantly, a person to speak to and a centre that is there to help at any time for over 100 older members; thanks these frontline workers, and considers that these organisations must be supported now and in the future for the amazing work that they do in communities.
