The motion

That this House congratulates Laura Clelland, a clinical support worker at East Lothian Community Hospital, on being nominated as Staff Member of the Year in the NHS Celebrating Success Awards; understands that the Staff Member of the Year category honours individuals who go above and beyond in their day-to-day work but who perhaps do not have a high profile within their team, department or service; commends Ms Clelland for her work to create a hair salon for older patients in the Haddington hospital's Oak Tree ward after putting a spare room to good use, which is the reason she has been shortlisted for this award as well as going in on her days off for any special occasion and giving her patients presents; and wishes Ms Clelland the best of luck with her future.
